A true legend / it´s such a helpless feeling.
Last thing I said to him was this is the last time you´re ever going to see me. I´ll never say that to anyone again.
That giant anonymous Flower display was not from me.
All your family always treated me as family. JAY was the first one of you I knew. The Loughran family made my life a better one. I think a big Family vacation here in Cabarete Dominican Republic would do you all good.
I´ll set it up.

I am so sorry to hear of Jay's passing. He was a great neighbor and always made me laugh with his comments while I'd be doing my yardwork. Peace to friends and family.
