I have many fond memories riding up and staying at the cabin in Potter County with Jake and Grandpa(Art). Jake was always full of stories... like “How do fish get into a pond?” I learned a lot about fishing from him over the years. My condolences to the family and friends, our thoughts and prayers are with you.
