I know that words cannot come close to filling the hole that you have in hearts after losing Jason. I wish there was something that could. I'm so glad that I got the chance to reconnect with Jay after all these years. The first time I heard him laugh again, it was the very same laugh I remembered, I can still hear it. He was the same kind & funny kid I used to know & I'm so glad that we got to know each other as "grown-ups", we teased. I'm so sorry for the loss you've suffered. Please know that me & my family are thinking of you all. Jay will forever be in my heart.

I am terribly sorry to hear of Jay's passing. I have known him since elementary school and he was always a kind and loving person to all. I will keep the memories we shared together close to my heart. Although we were not close these past few years he was not far from my thoughts. Regrettably I cannot attend his services. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
