“Sabre, my Katie just told me of Jay’s passing. Ernest and my prayers are with you and the girls during this difficult time. I know you’re glad he is whole again, but it’s also hard to say goodbye. Both of you have always been such a light for Jesus. I’ll never forget Jay’s kindness to me as a new believer at Alabama. He will surely be missed by many. 🧡”
