Jay

Our Uncle would be 100 years old today.

It was a view I sorely missed

When I left the house I grew up in.

Uncle Jay,

Standing

In the kitchen,

His gentle tone,

Calm demeanor,

Those who also remember him

Know his posture,

Always greeting each child,

Walking in the front door in the evening,

A cup of coffee, some conversation,

Laughter and

Family

Happy Birthday Jay.

You are an awesome man

And

Mom's big brother.

She missed you so,

As we miss you and her

And

Those days.
