"Jay was a generous friend to many, always eager to help out and offer support, and his joie de vivre was infectious. He loved where he lived, and in both Great Falls and Whitefish, Jay and Marla’s has been a home away from home for loved ones, acquaintances and friends of friends a warm, buzzing gathering place where music, conversation, food and laughter are plentiful. He was attuned to the magic of wild creatures and wild places, including the Northfork of the Flathead River, where a celebration of life will take place this summer."
