Throughout the time I took care of Jay I got to know and love the man he was. My second day with him he asked me, “what do you know about stocks?” I replied “nothing” he then asked me to grab a pen and paper (we all know how many pens he had) and sit down. He then looked me dead in the face and said “you're going to learn today and I’m going to quiz you tomorrow and then if you pass I’ll teach you some more” We then, during following weeks bonded over the stock market, Judge Judy, Chinese food, and what he called his glory days! We also shared many laughs over a show called ridiculousness I introduced him to him he called it “the show of idiots.” He shared many stories and memories with me and I did the same. One of his absolute favorite stories was about a drinking video I had where a friend of my husband who is military made a beer bong out of an AT4 shell, he called everyone and told them that story, he thought it was the greatest thing and continued to laugh about it for multiple days to come. What I loved most about Jay was that he was a pen collecting, big-hearted, scotch drinking, tell it how it is kinda man and one who will be deeply missed.
