Dear Mary and Family,
What a gentle man he was, with the most incredible softness and positive outlook on life. I never heard him complain. He was always accepting and appreciative of all that was being done for him. I will truly miss our phone visits. May you find comfort knowing he is now at peace. What a gift to have known him.

Dear Mary:
It has been a honor and a pleasure to get to know both you and Jay during the many days on the walking path at Sullivan. Jay always was so positive, gentle and kind. Always a smile and a kind word.

Mary and Family,
My prayers and condolences are with you and your family at this time. Jay was such a wonderful inspiration to me. In all the years I cared for him, there never was any inclination to just how sick of a person he was. He carried on with the Lord giving him Courage,Honor, and Pride. He truly was a SON of GOD'S.
