Jay-- I knew you through your music, although I knew that you had also done many things in your life. I enjoyed our time together so much-- we played together in a concert band and toured Washington DC in the heat and humidity. You always had a positive attitude about everything and were so encouraging about players who were learning jazz. You shared your love of music with us all. I will miss your wonderful laugh and your generous hugs. We sorted the garbage bags full of music for hours and you served as a Board Director for several years for the Lakewood Community Jazz Band and your input was valued greatly by us all. You began our Verspers program, which we will continue into the future. We missed you immediatley when you became ill, and will miss you forever. Rest in peace without pain, our friend in music. from Sunny Burns representing the Lakewood Community Jazz Band.##imported-begin##Sunny Burns##imported-end##
