Wow. Very sad. Jay was a great morning show partner at KOMA in the late 80s. Great to work with and an very fun sense of humor. Godspeed, Jay!
 
Jay was a real radio talent and a genuinely nice guy. It was Jay and others like him that inspired me to a career in broadcasting. Thanks Jay for the memories!!
