Kristine and Scott Peterson of West Richland; his stepsisters, Kristin Flores and Erin Flores of Seattle; his nephews, Jordan Adams, Steven Lathrop, Stirling Farrah and Lexor Adams; his nieces, Alex Adams, Arielle Dreher and Stacia Peterson; numerous aunts and uncles and his special friend, Rita Russell of Basin City.
Jay was born in Omaha, Nebraska, on July 31, 1963. In 1965, he moved with his family to Portland, Oregon.
Jay lived in Portland and Hillsboro, Oregon, until he was 10 years old.
In December of 1973, Jay and the family moved to Kennewick, WA. Jay was a graduate of St. Joseph's School and Kamiakin High School in Kennewick.
Jay had worked as a restaurant manager, bartender, taxi and limo driver and most recently as a farm worker in Basin City, WA.
Jay enjoyed the rural life and the love and company of his many good friends from Basin City, including his good friends Rob Scheenstra and Carolyn Anderson. Jay's favorite activities were playing golf and spending time with his family and friends.
Sara and T-Rex want everyone to know that their Dad loved to cook and was good at it; he was always up at the same time every morning cooking breakfast and whistling or singing a song.
He was always happy and energetic like that, no matter what time of day it was. He loved sports and he loved his truck.
When we were little Dad would play 'mush' in the yard for hours and never get bored with us. He would never get mad if we woke him up in the morning just to tell him, 'Be right back!' or 'Alamunte!' Dad loved living the farm life and being outdoors.
I will always remember my Dad as a happy guy with a positive outlook on life and me. I will miss him every day that he is gone.
The rosary will be held at Mueller's Tri-Cities Funeral Home at 4 p.m. on Sunday, July 17th.
The memorial service will be held at St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Kennewick at 10 a.m. on Monday, July 18th. in the Old Church Building.
A Celebration of Jay's Life will be held at the Basin City, WA, Fire Station from 4 to 8 p.m. on Saturday, July 23rd.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to an educational fund for T-Rex Adams at 440 Buffalo Lane, Basin City, WA 99343.
