WILLIAM JACOBSON Obituary

JACOBSON, WILLIAM G., was born May 19,1929 in Hull Massachusetts weighing 14 lb 4 oz. He went to heaven on May 31, 2011 as his loving family surrounded him. Among the many jobs in his life he was a clam digger, and a lobster fisherman. He served in both the US Navy and the US Air Force, and he worked in the local plumber's union 519. He was a hard working and dedicated man who bought his mother her first house at the age of 14. In his heart he was a family man, a baby, and a gorilla, but never a grown- up. He had a great love for people, especially children and animals. His passions were for his family, travelling, and making people laugh, and most of all for loving his wife Marie E. Jacobson who he held above all else before God and has now been reunited with to have and to hold for all of eternity. He is survived by his three daughters Trinky, Toddie, and Dot-Dot, and by his three sons Bill, Jimmy, and Kevin.
