From Devina, Yashveer,and the rest of the Singh family,
We are very sorry to hear of Jay's passing. To Devina and Yash he was much more than a bus driver. Jay always had a contagious smile on his face. We will all miss him.

Holly, Emily, and Eric ~ I was stunned and deeply saddened to hear of Jay's passing. I really appreciate the years we worked together at Gore ~ he was such a kind and loving person. I know he will be missed and my heart grieves for you. I will always remember Jay with fondness and please know that all of you and the rest of his family are in my prayers.

Holly, Emily, and Eric, I was very saddened to hear of Jay's passing. Jay and I worked together at Gore for many years. In fact we were office mates when he and Holly first met.

Jay was a very caring person, who put family first. He enjoyed the simple things in life - the moments that really do matter.

From Jonathan and Christopher Gibson and the rest of the Gibson Family. Jay was much more than just a bus driver to them.

Holly, Emily and Eric, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Jay. I know the tears will soon be turned to laughter when you reminice about all the memories you have created together. Please know you will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Holly,

I'm so sorry your loss, know that you Eric and Emily are in my prayers.

Holly, Emily and Eric: It was roughly 10 years ago that we all met and became fast friends. But we quickly realized that if Jay considered you a friend, he also considered you family. And when we became part of the Middleton family we quickly became part of the Landenberg family. We have so many wonderful memories of Jay and many really funny memories. All I need to say is toilet on the front porch and pizza box on the side of the road while he was weed whacking. Remember? Greg, Teddy and I...

Hello Holly, Emily and Eric:

I am so sorry for your loss . . . Jay was a wonderful man that will be greatly missed.

I knew your husband and father as a work associate at Gore. He quickly became one of my best friends at the plant. More recently I enjoyed stopping to talk with him while he was cutting the grass or weeding out on Newark Road.

The Mass said in his honor today at St. Gabriel’s was wonderful.

I will remember Jay as a man with a big...

Holly, all the Middletons and Bernard families ... Jay and his spirit for laughter, family, friends and all children has always been of significance in my life since my junior high days when he and David fell into my world. The day-to-day Jay
will be missed but his strength and zest for Life shall shine on in every day, every way with each dawn and sunset, the night sky and stars. "In the stars I shall live and in the stars, I shall be watching
and laughing".. Shalom my friend,...
