Lincoln School Honors Jay Conley from Heavenly Licks
This year, on the 2nd anniversary of Jay Conley’s death, the Lincoln School families decided to remember him in a special way at their annual Ice Cream Social. A collection for Make-a-Wish was held with a goal to build an ice cream cone to meet Jay up in the sky. Over $300 was raised in his memory and we are sure he is smiling at the giant ice cream cone.
For those of you who weren’t fortunate enough to know Jay, he was the popular owner of Heavenly Licks Ice Cream Shop for over 23 years. He passed away unexpectedly on June 4, 2010. Jay was a man who loved life and loved people. Whenever you entered Heavenly Licks you were greeted by this happy, funny and charismatic man who not only knew the name of your child but, had a way of making your child feel special. Many of Jay's customers went to Heavenly Licks as much for a serving of his contagious humor and happiness as for an ice cream. We all miss the smiling face of this special man who is now making ice cream up in the sky!
Lincoln School welcomed over 400 students staff and new kindergarten families for next school year to the Ice Cream Social. The event was once again a big hit and we wish all our families a safe and happy summer.
