Jacob I love you and me and your sons miss you so much.
Jacob was our friend. We cared about him .Hunter and his parents Molly & Earl send our love ..much sympathy and are very sad
for his loss. He made us laugh. He spent a lot of time at our home. He was a good house guest and friend. Our fond memories will live in our hearts..Hopefully to find peace.
He is at peace. May his passing be a spark to help keep others alive. He would want that.He mattered . Let him live in us.
Jacob, ughhh where do I even began? Ive watched you cry and open your heart up to me many times in the past year. No things didn’t work out between us bc we were just on two different paths in life. That still doesn’t mean I didn’t love or care about you. May your memory live on in your children, and through all that love you!
