You talked about once Jay was found, even just by his skeleton, you could tell that was your son.

And you were very intentional about wanting to say your own goodbye to him, touching his remains.

Can you tell me a little bit more about that?

I knew, yes.

I was scared to talk to the police.

I didn't want them to think like, oh, if you say someone's annoying or young or boisterous that they deserved it or they'd be any more worth investigating.

If you're here, he's family-oriented.

He loved his mother more than he did his whole family.

Jay would call me every year on my birthday to sing happy birthday, no matter what time it was.

I walked down the hill and made sure to watch where I walked to make sure I didn't step on any evidence.

I see what appears to be a human skull laying on the ground right over here.

There were a few other bones.

I believe there was a pelvis bone and an arm bone or another leg bone link in close proximity to this tree also.

I was very, very relieved.

I was suspecting his call at that point. Hey, mama, it's your birthday. Happy birthday. I love you. And did you get a response? No, I did not.
