Jay DEARMAN

Still missing you so much Jay. Love you to the moon and back.

2B

It's been a year and I still can't accept that Jay is gone. Such a senseless death for such a vibrant human. Thank you all for your lovely comments. It means a lot to know he touched your lives. Much love.

Was watching some Led Zeppelin on YouTube today.... couldn't help but think about you Jay.
You introduced me to all the early Led stuff.
Jay, you were one-of-a-kind. Your heart was pure.
You made life more fun.........always.

Can't even count how many road hockey games I had with you since I was 5 years old.
Every day at his house it seemed.
Such fond memories! Ice hockey too. Some crazy times! Just the way it was back then.

Jay, you were a huge part of my childhood. You are missed by me and many, that I am sure.
Bless you, hope you are making them all laugh up there.

So many precious memories of a favorite brother-in-law. Gone, but never forgotten. Jay will live in our hearts forever.
Carlyle & Carol

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

We are saddened to hear about Jay, our former neighbour in Maple Ridge. Jay was a caring, kind and friendly person who always had time to talk, share a story or a laugh. Our hearts go out to Suzanne and all of Jay's family. He will be missed.

Jay bought the glass for his doors from our shop for the last 3 years. He was such an nice guy - so friendly and happy all the time. He was so proud of the beautiful woodwork he produced - such a talented craftsman! Farewell Jay...

We were so sorry to hear about Jay, he was such a great guy. Built 2 awesome sets of stairs for us and I'll always remember him and i driving back from the west coast indulging our fanatical love of Pink Floyd by singing along at the top of voices! A great man with a great spirit.

Jay was a wonderful person. His untimely passing is a reminder to live life to the fullest. My condolences to his family. He touched many people and will be remembered fondly.

To My Buddy Jay
We first met at PVI in the early 80's doing our apprentiseship. Later we both worked together at BC Tel for 18 years. We were a team and had a great time working in the shop, out of town, doing side jobs or just helping eachother out at our homes. I will miss the jokes and your humor. You had a nickname for almost everyone. Would love to hear The Egg again when I would phone you. So sorry we never got out together on your boat for that day of fishing, we talked about. Miss you Jay Man. Barry

WORKED WITH JAY FOR 17 YEARS AT BC TEL NOW TELUS IN THE CARPENTER SHOP. HE WAS A WARM AND GREAT GUY WITH A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR MY CONDOLENCES TO SUSANNE AND YOUR FAMILY

Other tributes have mentioned Jay's sense of humour. How could they not? It seems like he cheered & inspired many! When I re-encountered Suzanne at a Gab library SRC event, it was no surprise to learn Jay was the guy in the whale costume at The Kerplunks show! Suzanne, Sarah, Carla, my thoughts are with you all.

So sorry for your loss.

I worked with Jay when he was at the BCTel carpentry shop in Burnaby. I did planning for Phone stores and Jay built them. I always appreciated his positive attitude, sense of humour and suggestions for improvements (always spot on)! He also made me some great croquet mallets. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Jay was a great guy, who will be remembered for his wit and teasing personality (especially with his daughters). We will share his memory with his grandchildren so that they will know what a wonderful grandpa they had, who was taken far too young. May those same memories help Suzanne and family through these difficult days.

So sad to say goodbye to such a great guy. Always so happy, with that twinkle in his eye. I knew him from Grade 8, through Grade 12. My heart goes out to his family. Rest In Peace Jay, and it will be of some comfort to your family, to know you will be watching over them.

Jay, such great memories of growing up with you in Ocean Park......our daily road hockey games at your house where we would play for hours, Ray Shepherd, WRJH and Semiahmoo school days and our WRMH ice hockey teams. Jay, thank you for the memories. You will be missed by all. RIP Jay

I am so deeply saddened by the loss of our wonderful Jay. Such a wonderful, sweet man who was so loved. We will always love him and miss him. May you rest in peace Jay.

Remembering all the years that worked together and shared time in Maple Ridge. Deepest sympathy to his family. Love Randy Bishop

We worked with Jay for many years. Jay made our work environment a better place. Many jokes and laughs. We will never forget him.
Frank & Sharon

My heart aches as we say good-bye to our wonderful, fun loving, brother-in-law. Words cannot express the sorrow the family feels at this terrible tragic loss. Jay will live on in all of us as we hold dear all our treasured memories. His spirit will be with us at all family gatherings and his grandchildren will know him through stories and memories that we all will share. Rest in peace Jay and know that your family will be cared for and loved by a huge circle of family and friends always.

Our hearts are broken as we grieve the tragic passing of a wonderful brother-in-law. Jay will live in our hearts forever. So many cherished family times. He was so very special to all...greatly missed & loved.
Rest in peace, Jay.

This a sad time. Worked with Jay in the shops in Burnaby. He was a great guy to be around always a good laugh. It still hard to believe he was taken. Take care brother. Never to be forgotten. Kevin Huber
