MEET JAY

Jay Glickman was one of the kindest and most genuine humans on this planet. He was brilliant and absolutely hilarious. His passion for life and affection for those around him lit up every and any room he walked into-even the expansive outdoor ones. 

​

On July 8th, 2021, Bella had the privilege of her life when she flew to Los Angeles and met her Uncle Jay. He had always inspired her from afar, but meeting him in person flipped her world upside down. 

​

Jay had a bursting heart to share with the world. A rabbi in Los Angeles said it best: “If I had Jay’s brain, I could be anything I wanted in this world.”

​

Jay decided early on that he wasn’t going to put up with anyone else’s agenda. He was going to live life the Jay Way. He chose to make his life his own adventure. And against all odds, he excelled in the Jay Way. 

​

Jay taught Bella to recognize that everyone has a unique story worth sharing. He encouraged everyone around him to rethink their personal biases surrounding the people who "live outside," a phrase he used to identify himself.

​

It is now the goal of Bella and Arden to spread Jay's light in their own communities. They miss and cherish him deeply, but know that by continuing to aid others in a similar position, they are uplifting his legacy. 

​

In loving memory forever & ever.
