Jay Addy, 32, of Decatur, Mississippi, passed away at the age of 32. Jay was a kind and genuine soul who loved deeply and gave his heart to everyone he knew. He was always just one phone call away, ready to listen, laugh, or lend a helping hand.

He enjoyed spending time outdoors, playing video games, and competing in softball tournaments. Jay also had a fun-loving side, often making late-night ice cream and egg roll runs that brought smiles to those around him.

Jay's presence was a gift to all who had the privilege of knowing him, and he will be missed dearly by his family, friends, and community.
