To the Vermetti Family, I was so very sorry to hear of Jay's passing and I will miss knowing that Jay is not here with us....but love knowing that he is now watching over all of us. I knew him for several years when he lived in Kansas City and when he was starting out in his comedic career, although I know it started out much younger in his life :o!! For all of you...every time you savor a memory or think of him it brings him closer to your heart and soul. My thoughts and prayers are with your entire family as he will be missed so very much, and treasured always. Barb King
