Jay Latham was a friend of mine. He was a TM teacher. When I first met him, he talked a bit like a fundamentalist Southern Christian, but he had some hilarious stories of his experiences in life, told with infectious verve. I lost contact with him, but did see him once briefly in Fairfield when I was in the area, probably 15 years ago or so. He seemed a bit tired that day, and he told me he was taking people on trips to spiritual places in the East. I had not realised he had written a book, or had the experiences that he seemed to have had with the regard to the big E. His book is out of print it seems; I have not seen the book. So I heard, Jay was very ill, something like influenza, and died unexpectedly in his sleep by asphyxiation. He was a regular guy, a no nonsense kind of guy.
