Jay Morgan Jolliff was born on Dec. 1,
1956, in Wichita, to Keith and JoAnn Jolliff. Jay was the oldest of
three boys. He died on Sunday (Feb. 17, 2019) at his home in
McPherson due to complications of pneumonia.
Shortly after Jay was born, the family
moved to Newton, where Jay lived and worked for most of his life. He
graduated from Newton High School in 1974. He had degrees from both
Hutchinson Community College and Wichita State University. Jay was
best known when he worked at a local clinic as a physician's
assistant.
Jay's passion was fishing. He loved to
cast a line, whether it was on a local river or pond. His second love
was that of cars.
Jay was preceded in death by his
parents.
He is survived by a son, Tyler;
granddaughter, Oakley; stepson, Aaron Wald and wife, Brie, and
grandchildren Brennan, Juliene, Jaden and Alec; brothers, Bruce
(Lori) and Rusty (Lisa); and Jay's friend, Julie Taggart.
