Marie & Belinda: What a wonderful man he was. He was always the life of the party. What a tremendous loss for the world and what a wonderful addition for heaven. I cannot attend due to health issues but will be by to see you soon. What a joy it has been to know you both. I'll always remember Belinda as the precious little girl in the red dress picking roses from my Auntie's fence. You are special and you are loved!

Marie & Belinda,
We are so sorry for your loss. Our family will miss Jay and his great stories. I too remember the family reunions and especially the one where he "gushed" over Amy's "Eubanks" cake. I know you have such wonderful memories because he was a special person to everyone. Dad will miss the special "long" phone conversations with him. May God give you comfort and peace, we love you all. In our prayers.
Charlie and Donna

Uncle jay was so special to all of us. He left me with lots of great memories--Texas Ranger games, family reunions & get togethers, gettting the kids donuts, playing the harmonica for us & making it look easy, setting up the slide projector for old home movies of all of us and running it backwards to make it funnier & too many more great memories to mention. My Uncle Jay & Aunt Marie have always had a speciial place in my heart. Heaven just got a very special angel Melissa

Jay was a very caring person. I'll always remember his soft voice when he talked to me. I remember he and daddy talking at those family reunions in Cleburne -- those two together always felt so comfortable for me. Now Jay and daddy are together in Heaven having those talks again. You will be missed--God bless. Fred Reagan
