I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I HEARD OF JAY'S PASSING. HE WAS MORE THAN A CLIENT BUT A FRIEND. I ALWAYS ENJOYED TALKING WITH HIM. I WILL MISS HIM.

We love you all. Our hearts are broken over the loss of J. He was a kind and loving person. God be with you.

We are very sad to hear about J.'s passing. Bob worked with J at Graphic Arts Center in Portland for several years and remained friends since then. Our hearts, thoughts and prayers of sympathy go out to Nella and their family.
Sincerely, Bob and Dianne Brown

I knew J only as an acquaintance, but what a great guy... he brightened my day whenever I saw him!

I will surely miss J. He was my cousin and a good friend. When J and Nella first moved to Vancouver Nella would bring her 3 girls over for lunch and play time with my 2 girls. J always reminded me of my dad, as he looked like him and both had a great sense of humor. We now live in Texas so didn't get to see J and Nella as often as we would have liked to. Nella you are in our thoughts and prayers. We love you

J. was a great person to know. I worked with him in the printing industry at GAC.

I am saddened that J has passed. I was honored to be one of his physicians for many years. He was a wonderful man. I especially liked his warm personality, keen mind and sense of humor. After I retired 3 years ago he took me fishing on the Columbia and although the fish were a "no show" the camaraderie will be long remembered. My sympathy to Nella and family.

I met J. and Nella At the national Jewish institute in Colorado four years ago. I was there to run tests on my lungs and Nella and I were placed in the same room together. J treated me just like I was his daughter and help me with all the nurses and doctors during my weeklong stay with him and Nella. I have remained in touch these last four years and was planning on meeting them this year. I think the Lord for letting me know such a wonderful man. I love you Nella.
