I had no idea Jay passed away until today. I worked with him at Nissan and that was how we met. I always liked Jay. He was very nice to me and I always appreciated that.
To Rocky, and Jay’s wife and family:
When I went to Moore’s site today, I was extremely sad to discover Jay Lineberger’s name among the recent obituaries. I remember him fondly: his respectful demeanor, kind heart, big smile, and especially how witty he was. Of course, Rocky, it brought to mind
all of you guys and how you worked as a team - playing off of each other - while you sat in “Family Living” at FHS, livening up our class discussions. I know that you and that group of guys will miss him terribly.
As I watched the video and read his obituary,
I was very thrilled to see that he went on to lead a family-oriented and God-centered life. That was always my mission, and wish for all of you students and your future families. Tammy, you and your family will be in my prayers. I know that you are going to sorely miss Jay, and the joy he brought into your lives. May your precious memories and the life he led bring you comfort - and inspire all to carry on his legacy through kind deeds, and spreading joy & laughter.
With deepest sympathy & in Christian love, “Miss Dockery”
Jay made you feel like you had been his lifelong friend, listened with his heart spoke truth with love. Been gone from Fayetteville for 17 yrs... I called him yesterday to say hi... Holy Spirit nudged me. Jay loved the Lord and genuinely cared for others. At home with The Father and loved ones!
I just heard of his passing, when we got back home from a trip, whether it was buying vehicles or just visiting and enjoying the company…you always knew he loved you and was a true friend, rest in peace jay… Tammy may god wrap his arm around you and the family for comfort…I will miss you my friend….Jim Ferguson
I just heard about Jay’s passing tonight. What a great loss for the community and the world at large, as he was bigger than life. I enjoyed chatting with him and would literally laugh out loud as he could really light up a room and make everyone feel so good. We ran into him and Tammy at the Venetian Inn about 10 years ago and just couldn’t stop laughing. He loved her so much and his entire family. He was one of a kind and they just don’t make them like that anymore. Prayers for the entire family and especially his cousin Rocky. Jay will be sorely missed, to say the least. Fayetteville lost a great one.
Please know I am sending you all prayers for comfort for the coming days. Jay was one of a king pad. I have known him since High School, and he’s always been one to share, include, and care about everyone. He will be missed!

Jay was a great, electric personality. I always liked that. Full of life.
He was one of the very few men that I've heard openly and whole-heartedly compliment his wife. Not enough men show appreciation like that. He did. He'd talk about how lucky he was to be with Tammy for decades and how she was as pretty as she was years ago. So positive and kind. When you heard him talk like that, many times in front of her, it reminds you of how few of us say such loving things. That's one thing he taught me.
He'd also say, 'love ya, brother', so many times. Always good to hear. We don't tell each other that enough. But he did, and I'm grateful for that.
We drove around Fayetteville a few times together, just reminiscing. Fun. We both had big fun doing that. Old friends, talking about life in our small town.
And his cousin, Rocky, very kind-hearted, was a great compliment and always a good, solid friend to him.
So, missing you, Jay. Love ya, brother.
