Jay Richmond
Dungeness: Brain-cancer victim dies at 43
DUNGENESS -- Jay Richmond's overriding lesson in recent months has been straightforward and painful: Life rarely unfolds as expected.
Certainly the 42-year-old mother of two anticipated growing old with her husband, Ken, with whom she would have celebrated 15 years of marriage later this month.
But fate intervened.
Mr. Richmond, 43, died at home early Monday morning, less than a half-year after being diagnosed with brain cancer.
In many respects, it was the longest five months of Jay Richmond's life, she said.
Absorbed in Mr. Richmond's medical and emotional care, she sat by his side and listened as he unabashedly relayed fears of death.
Mrs. Richmond believed she had a handle on how she would feel when the end finally arrived.
Again, life proved unpredictable.
``I told everybody, " she said, ``I wanted to mourn for four days, and just be by myself.
``But I don't feel that now, " she added, hinting at her relief that Mr. Richmond's suffering was over and that those who loved him could begin to grieve.
``I've got a life now. I've got things to do, and freedom I haven't had in a long time, " Mrs. Richmond said.
``For five months, he was all I thought about."
Mr. Richmond was born and raised in Port Angeles, graduating from Port Angeles High School in 1978.
Civil War enthusiast
A large man with a heart to match, many say, Mr. Richmond was a Civil War enthusiast and member of the Washington Territorial National Guard for sesquicentennial events around the state.
His parents, Ron and Betty Richmond, own and operate Richmond Radio in Port Angeles.
He and Jay met in 1987 through a mutual friend. They were married
in Sequim two years later.
They have two daughters, Cyntia, 10, and Heather, 7.
Prior to the October 2003 diagnosis, the Richmonds ran Richmond Press, a commercial printing company in Sequim.
Doctors stopped Mr. Richmond's radiation treatment Jan. 21 and estimated that he would have about three ``good weeks" remaining.
Several local churches teamed up for a fund-raising auction in early January, soliciting businesses for donations that netted almost $8, 000 for the Ken Richmond fund.
That money will help sustain Mrs. Richmond and her daughters as they rebuild their lives.
In addition to his wife and children, Mr. Richmond is survived by his parents; brothers David Richmond of Port Angeles and Randy Richmond of Woodinville; sister Nancy Reyes of Port Angeles; sister-in-law DeLise Berdan of Sequim; and several nieces and nephews.
A memorial service will be held at 6:30 p.m. Friday at Sequim Seventh-day Adventist Church, 30 Sanford Lane, Sequim.
Fellow Civil War enthusiasts will gather for a graveside service at 1 p.m. Sunday, March 21, at Sequim View cemetery on Sequim-Dungeness Way near Medsker Road.
Both services are open to the public.
