In Loving Memory
To all of you, and you know who you are, every single one of you! You have enlightened my life and made my calling in Pastoral Care so worthwhile. I am sorry that we had to meet through Jay's passing. But nevertheless, I am glad we met because you are special people. I can see the value in the soul of a person by the size of the wake their boat leaves behind. You guys rock! Jay left you the best gift of all, he brought you all together, something he couldn't give you in life but he could in death. He is with you in spirit, but you already knew that! I love you all!

I was shocked and saddened to see the obituary in this morning's paper. Although I hadn't seen Jay in a long time, I have many happy memories of gatherings of the Turner clan. I am sorry that I can't come on Friday evening to meet with my Moody cousins, some of whom I haven't seen in years. But I send my love and condolences. Especially I want to express love to Aunt Connie. I hope that you will all feel the love and comfort of our Heavenly Father at this time of sorrow. Kristine

Ray, I'm so sorry for your loss. We used to have sojme good times together with you and Jay. I can't make it Friday because of a previous commitment but my thoughts and prayers will be with you. Again, I'm so sorry. Love, Jo Ann Conner (June and LaMar's friend)
