My happy memories of Jason go back to our childhood and adolescence together. He was so unique! He always had a playful side and loved children so much. One mental picture I have is of Jason, at age 10, throwing his baby sister Debbie into the air with so much delight. And his sense of humor was amazing. That, along with his kindness, are two of my lasting memories of Jason.

Our deepest condolences to Jay's family and friends.
We cannot express the sorrow we feel for the loss of our dear friend Jay. I can only try to express how much he meant to us and how inspired we've been seeing the joy he brought to so many others. He was truly sincere, genuinely caring and most of all, one of a kind.
We feel blessed to have known Jay and have many great memories that we will always cherish from our time together. May his soul rest in peace.
