A. Jay wanted to be a trucker ALL his life. Driving from NY to NC we used to play the license plate game and name that truck. By the time I was 6 or 7 I knew the difference between a frieghtliner, a MACK and a Peterbilt. I think we all had a fascination with trucks but Jay made it a dream come true.

A. Jay had the opportunity to become a rappe- he was a lyrical genius, he had the opportunity to become a professional basketball player -recruiters not only looked at him in NY but also in NC when he was visiting family on summer vacation. He could have been a paralegal which probably would have lead to him becoming a lawyer (He always looked up to his friend Owen who had become a lawyer). He worked at a law firm and the lawyers were going to pay for his schooling because Jay was so good. Although all those things made Jay happy, becoming a trucker was a dream come true.

I remember walk in to Jay room and his reading the New York Times, which he did quite often from cover to cover. He was super intelligent. Jay thought beyond where he was at, where we had local vision he had global vision

Janine Jackson (Dec 28, 2008)
A. Jerold was such caring individual whom no doubt loved his family, not just one part but the entire family (mother, father, sister, brother, children, friends and family). He had a lot of love to share with everyone. The words that came from his mouth to lift a spirit in any given conversation. Due to the trial and tribulation he had as well as involved, he felt he could share some thought to help others make change. When we talk in every conversation there were words of his boys and coming home to momma. The holdiays was the greatness all because of getting with the family and foods. He is a NEVER ending story for the love he shared. He will greatly be missed.
