Our hearts are heavy as the Strong Man family has lost our founder, president, and leader, Jay Kinder. Jay passed away on June 24th with his wife, Elaine, by his side. Jay and Elaine’s relationship flourished at both home and at work, which led the two to grow Strong Man from their garage to the successful business it is today.

“Jay has been my partner through it all, and his loss is the hardest thing I have ever faced,” said Elaine Kinder. “In all aspects of my life, both at home and in business, Jay has been my mentor. His ever-present kindness and respect for others is something I have always admired. My life without my partner will be forever different, but his spirit is something that will live on through me and our family every day.”
