Hi Kate, I was saddened to hear of the passing of Jay. If I remember correctly ,he called me Ruth, I reminded him of his sister. The memories of our Monday nights are still dear to me and I hope that the strength that we shared will keep you at this time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of sorrow. I worked with Mr. Jay at muhlenberg hospital in the escort department. Mr. Jay was a good listerner and someone you could talk to about anything. He always had a smile on his face and would walk in a room and brighten it up. You loved him but God loved him best.

My sincerest sympathy to the Uzzell family.

Jay was a great guy that I have not seen in years but we were both members of Jersey Ski and enjoyed skiing the slopes.

Jay, may you rest in peace among virgin snow and sunlight always shine upon you.
