About
I’m a retired Navy Master Chief who takes great pride in my service, my Tipton 226 community involvement, and my strict adherence to government and local laws.
As a wedding officiant, I believe marriage is truly sacred. I bring sincerity, maturity, and a steady presence to every ceremony. For notarization and process serving, I deliver prompt, professional service and handle both good and difficult news with respect and discretion.
I work independently, so you’ll always deal directly with me. If you are not completely satisfied with my timeliness or service, there will be no charge, and I will even help you share your concerns so they are heard.
If you value integrity, clear communication, and genuine care, I’d be honored to help.

Jay was the officiant at our wedding in October, and it went well! We didn't have anything specific we wanted included during the ceremony, and asked for it to be non-denominational. He did a great job with it! There was a hiccup with paperwork, but he can be easily reached so it was fixed quickly. He's very nice with good service, and I'd recommend him.

We needed a simple sign-and-go marriage license notarization, and Jay handled everything perfectly. We met at Congregation Coffee Shop, which was very convenient, and he was incredibly flexible with scheduling and location. The entire process was smooth, quick, and hassle-free. Highly recommend!

I truly appreciate Jay for his professionalism! He is very responsive, understanding, and made himself available for us on such a short notice. Although we had to cancel our services with Jay as of no fault of his own, he still remained professional and gave us well wishes! I pray that God continues to use him to govern unions. Thank you Jay for all that you have done!
