Though I am Jay's cousin, I did not know him well. I was so pleased that he came to the Leary family gathering I pulled together at my sister's home a few years ago, and it was also nice to have been able to visit with him on March 17 in 2006. I offer the entire family my sincerest sympathy.

Dear Dianne & Family
