I had the pleasure of meeting Jay only once, at Ashley and Sheldon's wedding in BC in June 2023. Though our conversation was brief, Jay and Jodi’s kindness and warmth left a lasting impression on me.
The service was beautiful, and I’m grateful for the chance to honor Jay’s memory. My deepest condolences go out to the entire family and the Consort community.

Jay was, quite simply, an immensely decent, joyful human being. If there is a God, I can imagine why he’d be happy to have Jay back much earlier than we’re happy to part with him.

Jason was always warm and welcoming and no matter what was going on would always have time to stop and chat to see how life was going. Will always remember him cheering on the Consort team at archery and chats in town when running into each other.

Condolences to all family members of Jason. I will miss seeing and talking to him @ Veteran Full Gospel Family Camp. Will always remember his great serving at the concession booth. He was always a very good listener at the concession booth there. Enjoyed telling him different updates of my life. Also remember his friendliness and so many other qualities about him. Prayers to all his family members at this time.

Jay, it was amazing to have you in our lives. Dylan loved every moment spent coaching with you. He would always come home speaking so highly of you! The best memories of hockey was the year he got to coach with you.
You truly left an amazing mark on our lives and are so sadden to hear the news of your passing.
Thank you for being there. We will miss you so much!
