I just found out about the passing of Jay. Had great times with his visits to PA. No better guy to have as a friend. You are missed brother.

Thank you for your books. I literally laughed out loud reading them. Your baseball oriented comedy was truly original and everlasting.

Dear Mary Jayne... I am deeply sorry for the loss of your dear Dad, Jay. Just today I was remembering old Phillies, and sharing stories with my husband. I recalled your Dad's name and decided to look him up. It was a shock to learn about how Covid took his life. As a kid, my family had season tickets to the Phillies and so during those games when your Dad was on the field, he became an icon for me! Peace and blessing to you! Mitzi Adams, CT.

Enjoyed his years as a Dodgers and he definitely was a Prankster. Remember the dragging the infield with Reuss and I thought Mickey Hatcher was one of the four.
