Jay was one of the best friends I ever had and one of the finest singers and drawing artists that I've ever known. He was just a creative, colorful, artistical, beautiful human being. Its extremely sad to hear of his passing.
I hadn't seen Jay since I left Cincinnati back in 1972. We had a band together for a moment where he was lead singer. Worked together at the Phone company.
Created songs, etc. together. A talented person. The world is much emptier and lonely without Jay. My condolences to Milan and the rest of his family.

Winston was one of few people who addressed me by my full government name, Brenda Smith and it always made me laugh. Winston was intelligent and had the innate ability to master any field he chose. Winston was a budding socialite who loved a good party and he never met a stranger. Winston was an excellent cook and an amazing artist. His visual third eye manifested itself onto canvases which visually seemed three dimensional as he always brought his subject matter to life. Rest in peace Winston. Brenda McCullom
My condolences to the family. Brenda McCullom

Winston will always be remembered as being a sweetheart to me! From the moment I met him he was clever and funny and affectionate. I haven't seen him in awhile but just knowing he is no longer on this earth makes me sad. RIP
