Dear Jay,
As the years pass by, I stand here thinking about your life.
The directions of your life have swung in so many different directions, but all teaching you valuable lessons.
These past couple years have by far been the have the most impact not only in your life but especially in other people’s lives.
From the guys at the shop, to the men in bjj, to more importantly the kids you are developing in the wrestling room. This is “work that matters”.
This is why you trained. This is why you fought. This is why you lost more than you won.
To help these kids to never go through the same pains you went through or to help them through those tough times .
To help them when They might not have anyone to help them.
You are an amazing Individual.
As I sit here tearing up while typing this message, I hope you understand that you are now “living” and can’t wait to see what happens with you in the next 100 years .
I am prouder and prouder of you every day.
I love you with all my heart and soul. Happy birthday!
