Jazz was one of the finest gentlemen God ever created.  The world is richer because he has been here.  He will be greatly missed.

I need to let you know
that you were not replaceable.
You were a one-of-a-kind,
a one-in-a-lifetime friend.
The friendship we had cannot be duplicated.
Indeed, Those who audition for my friendship
will have to measure up
to the standard you set.
A high standard.
But my hunch is that eventually
someone will happen by
who has some quality
that will remind me 
of your irreplacableness
so a new friendship will be formed.
Not a replacement but a new friendship.
--Harold Ivan Smith

Jazz was a big part of the lives of many people.  His IRC family stretches far and wide.  Everyone he talked to grew to love Jazz and to hold him in the highest regard.  Won't you join us in honoring his memory by signing the REMEMBERING WALL.
