“To describe the magnitude of his loss, our patients, community, and most importantly, his family are devastated is not enough to convey it,” she wrote. 

“I can’t believe I’ll never again get to roll my eyes at his dumb dad jokes or share a chat about our kids over a c-section,” she continued. He was an upright guy, who was always there for me even when I was hurt or when it was painful. I was a better person because of him. Our birth months were the same, so I told everyone I was the bad twin. He is clearly the better one.

Jay is loved by so many. Stacy shared his legendary sense of humor. He never missed an opportunity for others to feel lighter, happier, more loved and more comfortable.
