Remembering the Bright Spirits of Jay’s Juniors

At Jay’s Juniors, every child who has been part of our program holds a special place in our hearts. Sadly, some of our brave Juniors have passed away, but their memories live on with us forever. Jay’s Angels is a tribute to these incredible children, whose strength, courage, and joy touched the lives of everyone around them. On this page, we honor their legacy, remembering the laughter, the smiles, and the unforgettable moments we shared together. Though they are no longer with us, their spirit continues to inspire us and drive our mission to bring happiness and hope to other children facing serious health challenges. We invite you to join us in celebrating the lives of our Jay’s Angels, who will always be a part of our family and remain forever in our hearts.
