Edward Jay Jr.

Edward William Jay, Jr. of Brookline, Massachusetts, died at home on April 29, 2025 after a lengthy battle with Parkinson’s. Loving and beloved husband of Heidi (Shuman) Jay. Adoring and adored father of Samantha (Jay) Crane and husband Nick of Delray Beach, FL, and Molly Jay and husband Kyle of Brookline, MA. Doting grandfather (Crummy) of River Jay.

We will always remember Ed and his razor sharp wit, singing and dancing throughout the house with the kindest smile, and making us laugh with the smartest dumb jokes we’ve ever heard.

Funeral services were private. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, or the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s research. To honor Ed, please vote Democrat.
