Mrs Caver and family Just witness to what you know and most have said! Jay was one of a kind – genuine- down to earth – caring – concerned so much more! He was a master expert on the lead – very unique sound and he was studios which was evident by his style – like no other. I thank him for the dialogue and exchange with my left handed son, Stephen! They were able to trade off from different dominions- “same God and same Holy Ghost power “ who blessed the church with gifts! One year in Kentucky, Jay stayed in our home during a church event. We were delighted to spend time with him. May our God of all comfort be with you and your family in the days, weeks, and years ahead on this journey! May the love of Jay put a smile on your face and joy in your heart knowing that part will always be with you. Love and prayers, Johnny n Darlene Mumford

It has sadden us all to hear of the passing of Jay Caver, a dear friend and neighbor who grew up on Monte Vista St. in Detroit. The Lord is the light that shines in our hearts, His presence is the comfort that will bring you peace, not even death can depart you from his divine grace and tender mercies. May the Lord give you strength and courage as you celebrate the home-going of your loved one. Praise be to God for the love and life of Johnell Caver Jr.
