I would like to take some time to wish all the best to a deceased New Paltz, NY local and kindred spirit JASON D. LAVALLE's friends and family as a year ago tomorrow Jay took his own life.
Jay Lavalle took his own life after not passing a drug test and being mandated to go to a rehab/jail after his conviction of destroying his apartment with a chainsaw (while drunk) during his birthday party in 2005.
Of course the good qualities in Jay will be sorely missed including his awesome cooking abilities (he was a cook), great, sly, vulgar humor, cultural knowledge, love of animals,charm, smile, generosity, compassion, counter culture and revolutionary political ideals and good taste in music.
Jason "Smiley Face" Lavalle is very much missed in our community and may he rest in peace as I know he's in a better place.
PIC ABOVE: Jay Lavalle on right, J Bone on left: RIP to them both.
