A beloved cousin of whom we were all proud, kind, humorous, intelligent. You will be missed dear cousin. It was the miles that kept us apart, but you were always a part of us. Memories that cannot be erased will remain with the family. Sadly, Norma and Arnold Cranston

Jay was a good friend when we were at Gonzaga. I did not see him again after graduation but, like Jim Coniglio, I have thought of Jay many times over the years. May he rest in peace.

My dear cousin Jay was my best friend. We were very close. Unfortunately over the years, we weren't able to see each other as much as we would have liked. The closeness was always there and we will always miss him. Rest in peace, dear cousin.
