Thomas “Jay” Lauhon Jr passed away peacefully, surrounded by his adoring family in Brighton, Colorado on March 16, 2021, at the age of 81. Jay was born in Denver, Colorado on April 28, 1939, to Thomas Jay Lauhon Sr and Margaret Meibergen. The eldest of three, he shared his childhood home with brothers Ted (San Diego) and Terry (Colorado Springs).
Jay served four years in the National Guard before starting out in the work force as a carpenter. After building several homes he decided to switch careers in the late 1960’s and go into the HVAC market where he ultimately started Four Seasons Heating with his son, Tom, and his son-in-law, Bernie, in 1987.
Although Jay was an intimidating figure at 6ft tall, he had a heart of gold and would not hesitate to help the people in his life. From a simple gesture of buying a meal, to much grander gestures for anyone in need, you could count on him to be working behind the scenes. He was also a great mentor and leader.
Jay is survived by his wife, Glenna, and their daughter, Casey (Jeff); son and daughter Tom (Cheri) and Tami from his former marriage to Jackie DiRe Lauhon; six grandchildren BJ (Westminster), Kayleigh (Brighton), Braxton and Colton (Salt Lake City), Aubrey and Dakota (Commerce City); and two great grandchildren, Jacob and Jaxson (Salt Lake City). He is preceded in death by his parents and son-in-law, Bernie.
