Dear Cheryl and Pete, I was just so deeply sorry to learn about Jay. He was a true hero on earth and will be forever remembered for his bravery, his service, and his abundant love for his family. He lived a short but full life here on earth. May you find comfort in knowing he has returned home to be with our Heavenly Father, our Creator. God rest his soul. May his memory be eternal. With heartfelt condolences and love, Mary

It didn't occur to me until my sister, Chris, pointed it out to me that Jason was my first cousin, once removed. My condolences to his father, Jimmy, whom I haven't seen for several years. It's unfortunate that we lost touch with the Menards.

Jason was a kind, shy, considerate student in middle school. I remember his warm smile and gentle nature. May he Rest In Peace and may your memories of him stay close to your heart and give you comfort.
