He is also survived by many loving cousins.
Jay was born on August 23rd 1962 in Winthrop, MA. He grew up in Revere, MA and later Lynnfield, MA before settling with his wife in Revere and starting their family.
Throughout his life, Jay was known for his kindness, generosity, unmatched work ethic and his devotion to his craft. He dedicated numerous years to Massey Construction, where he was respected as a Lead Carpenter/Supervisor for his attention to detail, precision and never leaving a job site until the work was done. His Massey Construction crew were family to him and he treasured working alongside each of them every day.
Outside of work, he found joy in simple comforts and pleasures. He loved hitting the gym every day (no days off EVER!), spending time with his family, sunbathing, watching history documentaries or boxing matches, his mother’s delicious pizza dolce and a good slice of cheesecake. He especially loved spending Sundays at his son’s house and bringing Dunkin Donuts to his three granddaughters. His deep love and devotion to his family, exceptional discipline and pure toughness is what we will always remember him by.
