Alton Joseph “Jay” Queen, 63, of Baytown, Texas, passed
away peacefully on Friday, June 18, 2021.

Born April 3, 1958 in Pasadena, Texas, Jay was a 1976 graduate of Westlake High School, where he played in the band, and attended McNeese State University. He was a longtime member of
First Pentecostal Church of Westlake, where he was active with the Sunday School program, the Bus Ministry, and served as Outreach Director in 1986. He has lived the past twenty-nine years in Baytown, Texas. Jay worked most of his career in Sales for
Dixie Rentals and Supply / RSC / United Rentals, where he retired ten years ago and worked his way up to District Manager over 90 million in fleet. He was an avid golfer and will always be remembered for his wit, his sense of humor, and the “World
According to Jay.” He had a love for people and animals, especially rescues, and had a zest for life. To say he never met a stranger was an understatement, he had a way to turn strangers into friends and sometimes would make the connections that made
them family. Jay’s true passion in life was for his family, and the love he showed them.

Jay is survived by his wife of 33 years, Sandra LaFleur Queen, of Baytown, Texas; sons, Andrew Queen and wife Brianne of British Columbia,
Canada, Tyson Queen and wife Taylor of Lake Charles, and Kyle Queen and fiancée April Huff, of Baytown, Texas; brothers, Benny Scott and wife Dolores of Moulton, Texas and Dennis Freed and wife of Orlando, Fla.; grandchildren, Will and Asher Queen;
mothersin-law, Sherrill LaFleur of Moss Bluff and Cam Creel of Westlake, La.; and his best friend since seventh grade, Nathan Wolsefer of DeRidder, La.
