So sorry, Pat, to hear of Jay’’s sudden passing! Tommy and I had many fun memories of sharing a meal together, surrounded by your precious dogs, and listening to the guys reminisce about growing up in Kilgore! He adored the ground you walked on! Love

Losing great friends is happening too often lately. We will cherish our visits and many memories that were created throughout the years. RIP Jay, we will miss you.
Pat,
I am so sorry to read of Jay's passing. I always loved our visits. He was a dear friend. Hugs and prayers for you, sweet friend. You were the delight of his life.
Jay had the sweetest smile and laughed so easily! He was gentle and kind and he and Pat were so very special to each other. Jay’s easy-going manner endured him to so many. His friends, classmates, and community will miss him terribly. Jay stepped in to help those in need and always did so without fanfare, never wanting to be the center of attention. He will be missed terribly as he left his loving mark on so many hearts. ❤️

Jay, and have been pals for many years. He was a soft spoken man but not timid. He had lots of friends and acquaintances. I will greatly miss him. We shared many good times together.
God bless Pat, as she mourns the loss of her husband and best friend.
