Farewell Jay, we'll miss you

Over 150 people gathered to say goodbye to Jay Hudson on Saturday. The parking lot was packed. The line of vehicles extended past the Latitude 62 all the way into downtown.  At the graveside service, a small hot air balloon was launched and 6 Talkeetna planes flew in formation above the ceremony in a touching send off to a man who touched thousands in his lifetime.
