“Jay was a devoted son, brother, husband and father who always made time for everyone,” the tribute said. “He was a wonderful father who truly loved spending time with his boys sharing his love of the great outdoors.

“Jay was an organ donor and his gifts helped three people so they hopefully can go on to live life to the fullest as he did.”

In everything Jay did he put in his all, working hard to support his family and making us all feel very loved. Thank you my forever love - they were definitely golden times.”
