Zev and Tahl's Papa, my step father, Jay Schmidt passed away this week.  It was while we were at Disney World, which was very surreal. It didn't really seem real until we got home. Today was his memorial, and we tried to celebrate his full life.  I am really going to miss him, and I am so sad that Zev and Tahl will not have him around.  He was so fun and silly, and the boys loved him. Jay was a person who was so full of life.  He brought his amazing smile and sense of humor everywhere he went. I was lucky to have him in my life to support me and love me. Please pray for my mom who lost her other half of 17 years.  I can't imagine what I would do without Ari or what my mom is going through.

We love you Jay.
