The world truly lost a wonderful soul. We hope you know that we share the sorrow in your hearts. This photo is from 2005

Our entire team at O.Henry magazine, is so very sad to hear about Jay's passing. In peace and love, Larice White

I was on vacation last week and just found out about Jay´s passing. I always smiled working with Jay at Battleground Restaurant group and he was one of those guys that you can still hear his laugh years later and see his smile like he is still right next to you. What a gift he was to all. Julia and kids, I am praying for comfort and know that Jay was such a blessing to so many. May he Rest In Peace.

Jim and Carolyn, so very sorry about your loss. Thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers. Fincher

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Peace be with you now and in the days ahead.

Jay was one of those individuals that pass through your life that you're always happy to see. He was such a positive person and always faithful to honesty. Jay had a real talent for building relationships with all types of people. He will be sorely missed.

Dear Robinson and O'Brien family, we are sorry for your loss. Our hearts and prayers go out to you during this difficult time. May the lord grant you strength and peace.

I have loved living near your family. Jay always had a bright word and a warm grin. I remember the field-dressed stag lying in the alley behind our houses, waiting for the butcher one crisp fall day. I shall miss him.
