Jay was my best friend for 40 years, we were married for 33 and dated for 7. He fought melanoma for 5 years until there was no other treatment options. He was a very strong man until this disease took everything away from him and made him extremely weak. He was a wonderful husband and a loving father to 2 beautiful girls. We all miss him dearly but know that he is in a better place free of pain. We hope that someday there is a cure for this horrible disease.

We will always love you Jay.
