My family is absolutely heartbroken by the passing of our long time neighbor and friend, Jacob. Jacob loved to play basketball and video games with David and Michael. He was always so polite and respectful to me, mom of D&M. What a sense of humor, to. Jake always made me laugh. He was such a good friend to David and Michael. Do to a bone disease, my boys couldn't partake in any rough sports, thus making them an easy target for being picked on. Jake was their "bodyguard". He was a big guy! Nobody messed with Jake. Jake was a very smart man. He was getting his landscaping business going, and I was so proud of him. So sad, too little photos. Now I wish I had taken more. Jake's in some of our home movies, to. I know the tears will flow, again, when I watch them. Such a terrible loss of a handsome,funny, polite, smart, young man. Dear Donna and Hank, Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss.... again! This is just too heartbreaking. You must be a whirlwind of emotions. I want to thank you for letting us have the privilege of knowing Jake. I loved that sweet, young man so much. His sense of humor is what I'm going to really miss.He will be sorely missed, by all of us . I am hurting very deeply, for you both. I was very touched the "sibling day" idea. My tears flow for this tragic loss. Our thoughts, love and prayers are with you both. Love, Joann, Steven, David and Michael.
