I am so sorry to learn of Uncle Cleo's passing. May we all enjoy such a long and active life as his.

Jake sorry for your loss. I know he was special to you. He sure lived a long and full life.

Larry, Rodney, and Kieth we would like to express our feelings of sadness to your family for the loss of your dad. I remember him as a nice man with muscles, he was good to us kids on 23rd street in E St Louis. He taught me how to catch a major league fly ball. He would take us kids out to Grand Maria's Park and hit us fly balls til dark. Then we would pile back into his Kiaser Fraiser (black) and he would take us back home. Again Sorry For Your Loss,But We All Have Good Memories Of Him.

Jake, Rod, and Keith and the Jacob family, I am sorry for your lose. Mr. Jacob had a long and happy life. I remember playing golf with him when he was in his 80's. I hope I can do half the things he did at his age. So sorry. Bud and Linda Lubeck and the whole Lubeck family.
