I too had the privilege of working with Jay. I saw him as kind and gentle soul who will be missed by all he came in contact with during his short time here. My sympathy goes out to his family. God Speed Jay Hart, I'll see you on the other side.

I had the honor to work with Jay when he was a youth, through Happening and other areas. Also as a Citadel man. May God be with all of his family at this time and always. He was a special person too so many.
