I met Jay in 1988 when I was interviewing for my first job out of college. He was the main reason I chose to work for Deloitte and I so enjoyed working with him. He was an inspiration, a mentor, and a close friend. I will miss him dearly. My prayers are with Diane, Kellye, Brent, Rob, Matthew, and all other family members.

I am saddened to hear of Jay's passing. As a business acquaintance I have not seen Jay in several years. He was truly a "nice guy" and a credit to his family. He will be missed.
