  1. Jake, I will never forget how much fun we had at Emily’s wedding. You were really fun dude to hang out with and your girl too. But my best memory will always be you inviting me to Hawaii and me hoping and planning it was going to happen soon after all this Covid bullshit. I don’t know if I’ll ever make it to Hawaii without your incentive to do so but if you ever give me a sign and let me know I should go if your family goes I promise you I’ll be on that flight. I hope your flight to heaven was a peaceful one. If you bump into my son up there give them a hug and tell him I miss the hell out of him will you? This is just so damn sad such a crazy happening. My heart goes out to your family and your fiancé who I’m sure couldn’t wait to be your wife but I am sure in her heart she already was. Rest in paradise dude. Love you cuz ❤️

    I was so saddened to hear about Jacob’s passing. He had an infectious smile and a great heart. He was one of the first people to welcome me into the Chamber of Commerce. He was a wonderful friend.
    I will keep your family in my prayers. He will be missed.

  3. Jake, you seemed the perfect fiancé for Samantha. You are such special, very positive people, both
    with a great sense of humor. How lucky Kevin and I feel to have been able to meet you. Jake, you will be
    sorely missed. The world would be a much better place with more people like you.

  4. From my family to yours. We are absolutely heartbroken by your loss. Jake was the BEST and will continue to live on in the hearts of those he touched. Hold each other a little tighter today, and know we are all thinking of you. Brad, Sue, Katie, Rebecca, Emily, and our children (Nicholas, Heleena, and Emmerie).
