He loved baseball, going to card shows all over the US. Collecting memorabilia of all kinds.

He was involved in classic cars, he owned 2 and loved driving them in parades and showing them off in car shows.

There will be a lot of ball players to play catch with in heaven. Until we meet again, Rest in Peace.

RIP old friend. We worked together and played together. We first met in 1975 when I moved to SLC from Denver. Jay helped me with my business in SLC when I moved back to Colorado in 1984 to care for my parents. He was wanting to take a train trip to Colorado to visit but we didn't get to do it, I will miss you greatly.

So sorry to see this. Jay was a longtime fixture at the University of Utah who really loved his job, the university community, and his many passions in his life. Baseball (especially the '55 Brooklyn Dodgers), collecting memorabilia, John Wayne movies, and vintage cars were just scratching the surface of this man and who he was. Jay was, to most people, a curmudgeon and a little crusty on the outside. But if you got to know him, he was totally the opposite. He was a loyal friend and someone who truly cared. He cared about his community, his friends, coworkers and students who interacted with him in the Chemistry Department storeroom, and when he selflessly served the Glendale Community for many years.

Goodbye and God Bless you Jay! I never got the chance to say thanks for all you did for me. Take care and say hello to Duke, Pee-Wee, Jackie, Roy, and the Boys for me on the other side. Prayers for you my friend. Bon chance!
