As I sit here and think about you this morning in particular it still has not sunk in yet. So many times I wanted to pick up the phone to call you and ask you for your advice but we both know that's not possible. But my instincts have kicked in... What would Dad do.... That is helping me cope with your loss. I know I'll continue to make you proud and I have a wonderful angel looking over me..... love you Dad💔
Dad~I will hold the memories that we made together forever. You taught me so much about life that I will carry on until me meet again. I still cannot believe you left us so soon but I know that you are free from all your pain and in a better place! I love you and always will! I hear songs on the radio and I think of you jamming out to many. My country song you loved was "Who's your Daddy"....by Toby Keith. Rest easy Dad, I will continue to be your proud Lilly's girl.......Love Always your Daughter

Jay, the last words that we said to each other on Thursday, March 12, 2015, was, "I love you!". You still are the bestest brother anyone could be blessed to have. I'm glad I never traded you in :-D. I will always love you. Your sister, Debbie
Dear Jay,
Even though our journey took a different road we shared many good years together and I will always hold the love in my heart for you, Jennifer is a beautiful daughter from the years that we all shared and will never be forgotten, may you rest in peace and Jennifer and I will always remember the cherished memories and we will always be here for one another, God rest your soul, sincerely and with love, Cindy
Jay was my good friend for over thirty years. He was a man I admired and one whom I sought and welcomed his counsel. He always gave it to me strait even if I didn't want to hear it. He was a self made man with strong convictions. And I admired him for that even if we didn't always agree. In the years I've known him I have never known him to turn his back on a friend. He certainly always had mine.
Jen- he was very proud of you and loved you very much.
I already miss him more than I can say. The thought of my friend no longer being there when I need him has left a void in my heart. Rest in peace my friend.
With love and respect;
Don Whitehead

Uncle Dale and I send our thoughts and prayers to you Jen. We are so very sorry!
