I had the good fortune of meeting Jay at out Karamusel reunion in 2007. Don't remember him from our time in Turkey but in 2007 I think we became real good friends. We had many good times reminiscing about out past in the Air Force. From 2007 till the reunion in 2008 I looked forward meeting up with him agan. I was on Baker flight and not sure what Jay was on but Most of my close friends always made arrangements to have him sit with us at the picnic and at the Banquet. I am attending the 2009 reunion and I for one am really going to miss sitting around talking with Jay. God Bless you Jay my good and close friend and I know that you are in the hands of our Lord and Saviour. Gino Stellabuto (Karamusel 59-61)
