I'm not sure if this was already posted. I did a few searches with no results. A long time steel forum user that I have interacted with over the years has passed away I come to find out. I haven't heard from him in quite a few years, I sent him a few emails over the passed few years with no reply, so I did the "obituary search" and did find the news of his passing. We bought and sold equipment from each other. Jay was a good guy.

We are loosing alot of steel players.

I had a pleasant experience with Jay in a gear purchase. Decent honest guy. Sorry to learn of his passing. You are right, way too many of our fellow players are passing on. God rest his soul.
