This is so very sad. I remember one morning a few years ago I woke up and Jay was in our vineyard about 6 a.m. shooting photos. I am somewhat comforted that he died doing something he loved. He was always so proud to give us his photo calendar. Our condolences to the vamily.

As much as Judy and I remind ourselves how much we appreciated Jay and all he did for us , we also want to express our condolences to Idy and Amy and brother Kim and all family members. Jay was truly a gentleman, worthy of everyone’s respect and he will be missed by all, Jim

Jim and I are totally devastated about the news. I am especially sorry that Jay was alone. He took his photography seriously and put out great calendars every year. Jay was like a father-figure to me; he called me “Trouble” and said that I lived up to my name every time he saw me… It wasn’t long ago that we visited him and had a great wine luncheon… To Jay: you were the BEST!
