Jake was an awesome man who he along with his wife Linda, gave my life special meaning! God gave the two of them to me and I deeply cherish our relationship! I love them more than words could ever describe, I love them to the Moon and Back! So happy that God Chose them for Heaven's Gates, a place for the Pure at Heart! So thankful that God Chose Me to make a huge impact in their lives! Not only am I at a loss for words, I stand honored - I count it a great privilege to get to know them! Our meeting, our joining of hearts was a pure Act of God's Amazing Love! One in which, My Heart will never get over and I wouldn't want it too! One day, I will join them... Along with many more! Come and Go with me... To My Father's House! God Bless You with His Awesome Love!
