Dear Karen & Todd & Amy, I am so sad to hear of your loss. I thought Jake was great guy. I enjoyed serving him coffee for so many years. He most always had a smile and had such a kind heart. I will remember him fondly. I know he will be missed. My condolences.

We are saddened by the loss of Jake, so glad we had a chance to be with him one last time at Pizza Yen. He was a good man who will be missed.

We will miss running into Jake - such a good guy.

Dear Karen and Family, I just found out about Jake today and I am so sorry for your loss.
What a great man. I always enjoyed visiting with him at the township hall. I do not know of any other resident that supported me like Jake did at every election. He was a very caring and all around nice guy. I will miss him alot.
My sincere sympathy to the entire family.

My deepest condolences. Death of a loved one is never an easy thing to go through. Just remember you are not alone. Isaiah 61: 2 "...To comfort all who mourn" God is right here to help you.
