Mrs. Danielson, it was wonderful to see you again this past summer and reminisce my mischevious days with Jeff back when we were kids. You reminded me of a few that I must have conveniently forgotten. :) God bless you and I pray your great loss is softened by our Lord's love and mercy.

Paula, Patty, Miki and Jeff: I really miss seeing all of you. It's been so long....40 years....wow! I had so many great memories growing up with you. Jeff and I spent all of our time together. He...

Wish we could with you today. We remember those fun times we had at the National Forest Lodge, the camping trips, and those times at the Minnesota Orchestra. We have lost a very good friend.

Jane and Family,

Mari and I wish to express our sympathies on Jay's death.

It was always a pleasure to serve with him at The Church of The Epiphany when I made Visitations there as Bishop Suffragan of Minnesota.

Please know of our prayers for Jay, for you, Jane and for the rest of the family during this time of mourning.

Dear Jane,and Family, Jay was such a fine man and a superb deacon. All of us Minnesota deacons appreciated his great heart and spirit.

Sorry to hear about Jay's passing . Our thoughts & prayers are with you .

Jane and family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I only wish I was closer to be able to spend some time with you. You are close in my heart.
I love you all.
