Every time I tried to come here, I couldn't last more than 30secs. It's just as hard now. But is time. I was with Jay during work hours that fateful night. We actually went and got a few Hot Wheels before going home. I never took them out of the bag. I look at them and tear up. Jay was my so much more than a co worker. I aspired to be like him. Kind, gentle and fair. So many years have past and I think of you daily. I will never forget you. I will always have love for you. Until we meet again little buddy. Joe.

Missing you Jay. Seems like yesterday you were buzzing around in your blue Subaru. Every time I am in Crandon and go by the Dollar Store I remember the log cabin and the trailer. I can visualize you driving around on your go kart. Miss you buddy!

Jay and I worked together at Huntington Place. He taught me a lot and sparked an interest in locksmithing in me. 15 years later now that is what I do for a living. Thank you Jay for taking the time to share with me your MANY talents. I miss you my friend.

Even so toady, we are left with mass confusion and unanswered questions in the death of Jay. We just want to say to the family and friends of Jay; "in due time, everything will work out for the good" as I am reminded of a scripture, "And we know that all things work together for good, to them that love God, To them who are called according to His purpose."

In the Great Genius’ mind there are those twists and turns. To know them, to suffer them, to be blessed by them is our challenge. To love each and every one is our opportunity. Thank you, Jay. For being who you were, are, and forever will be, you made a wonderful contribution to our lives.

A few short lines can't sum up all of the wonderful things I could say about Jay, and I only knew him for 3 short years. The times that I was fortunate enough to be in his company were always a pleasure and he continually brought a smile to my face and the faces of those around him. He was truly a great man and will be missed dearly.

I have known the Rosio family since 1949. Herb and Tina are among the finest people I am fortunate enough to know. There are no words that can adequately say how sorry I feel for them. My heart, as well as those of my family - Roberta, Chris and Erika - go out to them. Herb and Tina, you are a beautiful couple, and I know you will always be there to comfort one another .

Greetings Dear Family & Friends...
I had the privelege of living with Jay this past summer as a renter. He and I got along very well. His mechanical attributes were tremendous and being like-minded, I enjoyed his company. We shared many stories together. The most important thing, our last conversation was that of a Spiritual one. May the Lord take him.

At Northown, we consider ourselves family! He was a kid at heart, & a joy to be around. He loved to play practical jokes. He was always available to help when needed. I will miss you Jay, but will never forget you. Knowing you has made me a better person, and I thank you. I know he is in a better place, but I will miss you!
Rest in peace my friend.

He came from good stock. Through all his struggles he came up smiling, always a twist or a trick. We are luckie to have shared this all too brief a time with you. You are just gone too soon darn it! You live on in our memories forever and some of those have already been shared with smiles. You have a very special place in our hearts, Rup & Maggie

We did it Jay!

After many years, many Humble years. I have finally achieved a goal Jay knew I could hit. Maintenance Person Of Year Award. Last night we had our company award dinner. I thanked everyone for believing in me, but it was truly Jay who seen it first. He had mentioned that he wanted that more for me, than I did for myself. I will be forever grateful for the time we shared. The desk we shared , daily for lunch. The cars we picked up that fateful night are now on display for all to see, and hopefully ask about. You will forever be a part of me. A brother. A friend. A Guardian of Good. He remains a positive light in my life , when it gets dark. Eternity grateful. Love Always, Joseph.

A Special Guy

I met Jay years ago through a local Hot Wheels Club. He was a delightful guy with a ton of personality. He would come to visit me at my Anoka house and we would trade Hot Wheels. He told me he was from Crandon Wisconsin, a place I've never heard of. He also told me that Crandon was the toilet seat capital of the world. Apparently, there was a factory there were they built toilet seats. One time he came over to my house after a Halloween function at his work. He had a Hot Wheels shirt on with Hot Wheels cars sewn all over it and a piece of the orange RaceTrac going around his body so he could set cars on the track and dance like with a hula hoop and the cars would race around his body! it was hilarious yet incredibly creative. And that's my eternal picture of Jay and his little Hot Wheels Halloween costume. It was precious. I feel fortunate that I had the privilege to know Jay and he will remain a prince of a man in my mind. My thoughts to his family
