You were my big brother. I have so many memories of you. All of our crazy stunts from riding down a big hill with 4 of us in a wagon to riding our bikes to the church to playing basketball. As adults our lives went different paths and we didn’t see much of each other. I hope you are at rest and you and Kirt are smiling down on all of us that will miss you. Rest In Peace Jay.

I only met you a year and a half ago, you started out just being the maintenance man at where we both live, but you ended up holding such a special place in my heart and i love you for that and for so many other reasons, I havent met anyone in a very long time as special as you are, theres nothing you wouldnt have done for me and there was nothing that i wouldnt have done for you,you are loved and are going to be missed by so many in here and everywhere im sure. Its hard as can be not seeing that gorgeous smile of yours that always just made my day so special, and the days i did not get to see you was just like a rain storm it was always gloomy till the next time i would see you, then you were just like a breathe of fresh air and sunshine. I miss you so much already and theres not going to be a day that i wont miss and love you. I do know for sure that you have to love where you are now and that it has to be so much better than this place.You were the best good friend that i have had in a very very long time.

Bailey Osborne says
i am his only son, but i lost my father many years ago when he lost himself in things the world will never be able to get rid of. he wasn’t in the right state, the man that will be cremated is in a much better place than he was to begin with. i love the dad i knew when i was nine years old, my condolences go to any that may have been close to him within the time i was not in contact with him.
Tim and Angie McCarthy says
