Jay was our friend. Our gentle giant. He looked intimidating but he had the biggest heart. He loved to tease everyone. He is going to be missed. The Price Is Right and Mike's bar and lounge will not be the same. How about church at the Wabagon? Missing Jay with love, Steve, Vicky and Steph CampbellCloquet, MN 05/25/2012 1:41 PM
