I knew Jay through his brother Paul. We all lost touch as we grew up. I just learned of Jay’s passing after attending Paul’s services. I wish myself Paul and Jay would’ve kept in touch as we got older. I’m happy for the times I got to spend with him in our younger years. RIP Jay.
My sincere condolences to the Paxton family. I knew Jay in my earlier years and he was certainly a joy to be around. Jay was very thoughtful and caring guy. Paul hang in there. May God bless you and give you comfort and peace.
Jay we will see you in heaven, rest in peace my brother! Gary McClain
