Not sure what to say?

One of my favorite co-workers in the 16+ years I had the privilege of working for his dad and uncle at Harbert. Always a smile and big hug when he would come visit the payroll and accounting departments. God rest his precious soul.

How well I remember Jaybird when I worked briefly at Harbert Corporation! His smiles, his hugs, his laughter, his love lit up the room. Looking forward with joy to seeing him again.

I send my condolences to Jay's family and friends. May he rest in peace.

Best attitude of anyone Ive ever known.

Words cant express the immense joy that John added to almost ever Sunday I had at St. Lukes growing up. He truly represented the open, loving spirit of God in every moment I knew him. Im so sorry for your loss and know that he will truly be missed!

With heartfelt Sympathy to the family. Jaybird was a joy to be around. Praying for the family.

Jay was one of the bright lights of St. Lukes. I always looked for him and loved his hugs. I was a member of the choir and Jay loved the choir members. His welcoming smile has been missed. Thank you for sharing Jay with us.

What a joyful person Jay was! My deepest sympathies to Raymond and Margie.

Jay was such a joy in life to all who knew him. All the years of knowing him, the hugs and smiles just warmed your heart. Although I have not seen Jay in many years, He will always remain a special memory in my heart! Blessings to all the Harbert family. You will remain in my prayers.
