To the family of Jay,
I am so sorry to hear of Jay's passing. We have been missing him at Moraine Valley's Health Fitness Center and after some investigating found he had passed away. He will be greatly missed for his warm smile, jolly laugh and great personality.

To the family of Jay,
I wish to express my sympathy, which I would have done in person but I am presently away in Florida. I worked with Jay in years past and we sat at the same table when he attended the OGH gatherings. I will miss his friendship and especially his humor.

From Abe Lincoln -
"....and in the end..it's not the years in your life that count, but the life in your years."
Your father was a generous and mindful man. Will pray for him and your family.

Dear Laurie and Family,
I was so sorry to hear of the death of your dad. He was a warm, outgoing and friendly person and I fondly remember him as a great, fun guy at Indian Lake. Take very good care of yourself and rest assured many prayers and warm thoughts are coming your way.
