If you knew Jay, you knew his passion was Jay Royal Clothing that he was a fixture in the Rocky Mount community for 52 years. He also loved his car collection and he was very proud of his children and grandchildren and he considered every customer to be his best friend.

He was one of a kind and did what he loved, worked in his store until the day before he unexpectedly passed. 

We will miss him and will enjoy sharing his stories and life lessons forever. If you have stories you would like to share with the family, please email Kim at kwojnowich@gmail.com.
