I really enjoyed the time Jay and I spent at Yankee Fantasy Camp and watching our alma maters (U of South Florida and U of Memphis) battle it out on the basketball court. A great man taken way too soon. Condolences and prayers to Maureen and family

Our heartfelt and deepest condolences to the Myers family. Jay was a kind soul with a warm smile. Sending our love & prayers. Marty & Lani Schlundt

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Jay was a good boss and friend. I enjoyed working with him at ISI for 15 years. I always loved hearing him speak at different events.

In memoriam and in perpetuity, the "Good Guy of All Time" award goes to Jay Myers. Affable, amiable and accommodating, he welcomed all with love and affection. He even went so far as to embrace me, a New Yorker, who loved the Red Sox! I seem to recall a playful mention or two about the `Curse of the Bambino´, however. My wife, Sheila, is a Walsh also, and I was welcomed into that Irish culture on many occasions with grace and love. Our condolences to the entire clan...

I only met Jay a few times, though I have heard so many wonderful stories of his mentorship to others and his kindness and love to his friends and family, and I loved his never ending smile. May his memory be eternal.

Heartbreak and deep sadness are the emotions I felt when I first heard of Jay's passing. Jay had a wonderful spirit about him that everyone around him recognized. A light of happiness. We first met Maureen and Jay not long after our son Kevin shared with us, he was in love with their daughter, Katie, and they were soon to be married. Katie, a smart, beautiful girl whom I have had the good fortune to call my daughter-in-law, showed easily she was the product of two great parents, Maureen...

We are so saddened to hear about the loss of this wonderful man, husband, dad and grandpa. We met you all at the beautiful wedding of Alexis and Jordan...and have had the pleasure of catching up at so many the Wonais´s gatherings! It seemed like yesterday when we were chatting together in Minnesota at Dean and Jackie´s wedding...you both gave us great tips for our next Memphis journey!! You´re all in our prayers and hearts!!
