[BT SNAKE]

I stared at this post in total disbelief. I welled up and could hardly read it.
I agree with all the kind words stated here . He was a prince of a human.
Jay was my big brother in size. I was a year older. I heard a quote once and I think it is true of Jay.
If you were in jail a good friend would come bail you out. A really good friend would be sitting next to you saying "man, we really screwed up". That was Jay. He stuck by his friends and didn't mind telling them if he thought they were wrong. Many times I've bounced ideas or problems off him. He just had a way of keeping it straight and simple. I really liked that most about him.
I salute you as one of the best Rangers to wear the uniform. I will truly miss you. God's speed my friend.
