Not sure what to say?

I think about you often my friend! Every time I go thru DeLeon heading to san saba I give a honk and a shout out to my friend Jay, you are still missed by many! Rest in peace my friend

I worked with Jay in the Test lab. He was always so helpful...would drop anything to find me the right fitting. Just last week, he took the time to help me scour the plant for something that I needed. Always friendly. Always helpful. I am so sorry for your loss and will miss him. May he rest in peace.

THE MEASURE OF A MAN:
Not - "how did he die"
But - "how did he live"
Not - "what did he gain"
But - "what did he give"
These are the units to measure the worth of a man.

Jay and I were coworkers for many years.
Words cannot express my sorrow.
The Test Lab won't be the same without him.
He will truely be missed.

To a great friend and awesome aircraft tech, I am a better person and tech for knowing you. My prayers to the Lightfoot family for your tragic loss. GODSPEED Jay I wish we could have spent more time together.

Prayers that you find peace. You were always such a sweet soul. My deepest condolences to your family.

You were a Great friend and an Amazing Man. One of the very few I can say that about. You will be greatly missed. Keep flying my friend.

Dear Lightfoot family, Jay was well respected and thought of highly amount all his peers. His passing deeply saddens us all. My condolences.

I will truly miss you my friend! Pounding rivits in the belly of a plane, flying, skydiving, or burning powder. It was a lot of good times and fun!

My deepest prayers up upon the winds for the family and friends whose lives Jay touched or would have touched. Aho my brother.

Jay, I will miss you forever! I am a better man because of you. God speed my true friend!
