Jay Jefffry Goehring was born on October 10, 1957, in St. Cloud, MN, to parents, John and Lenore (Bakken) Goehring. Being the fifth child in a family of six, he was welcomed home by his brothers and sisters.

He especially enjoyed duck hunting and looked forward to the fall of every year and the beginning of another duck season. He was an avid outdoors man and cherished time spent with family and friends fishing on all the area lakes.
