Not sure what to say?

What a great role model and coach. I enjoyed playing basketball with Jake and sons at Windy Hill in the golden years. Always had something to teach us.

A quite gentleman. I enjoyed playing basketball with and against him. He always shared tips to make other players better.

Jake was a great man who touched many peoples lives and I was one of them.

I'm so sorry for your loss. As you remember your love one, may your treasured memories and Almighty God comfort your broken hearts. (Psalm 147:3)

I remember Jake and his many stories about his family, trips with his daughter, wife and him, camps with Bobby Knight, and senior games he played.
He was a competitor, a gentleman, and a great role model.
All the old guys at Spring Grove will really miss him.
RIP Jake.
