Jay Stout

Deepest sympathy to Jay's family. We lost touch many years ago, which is such a shame. We were very close when children, even though we lived in Pipestone and Jay, Janet, Uncle Joe & Aunt Dorothy lived in Sioux Falls. I have thought about them many, many times over the years.

Jay, my man, rest in peace. I knew you over many years as a business advisor and friend. You always were fun-loving and faith-filled. If we didn't talk for awhile, you would just call and tell a joke or a funny story. You taught many lessons and sometimes you spoke. I wish your dear friend, Cindy, Jesse, your special granddaughters and your entire Family every blessing and grace from God..

May you turn to the hearer of prayer during this difficult time (Psalm 65:2).

My sincere sympathy's to Jay's family and friends. My very first job out of college was at Stout Plumbing & Htg, and I have many cherished memories of the 10 years I shared with Jay, Jan and Joe. I thank you for that. God Bless and keep the memories.

Jay was a special part of my high school days...lots of crazy memories! What a blessing to know that he loved the Lord...amazing how our paths changed over the years - Susan Reagan Omanson

Jay was a wonderful blessing in my life and for so many others. We were very close, his and Cindy's calls were always the ones I looked forward to. No one will ever replace him and the precious gifts of maturity and wisdom that he shared with me throughout these years.

Jay, you truly showed us how to "take your Christianity to the streets", Brother---touching so many of us in special ways!

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Rest Peacefully Jay Bird. You were an inspiration to many people and many of those people will remember you for always having a big heart and caring spirit.
