Carole & Mark,
I'm happy to have known your Mother and
Father and both you and your brother. I spent some wonderful time with you, and your family. We did not have transportation to church and your parents helped us out. I also remember some of the activities you and I had as young people.

David McMillan

Mark & Eileen and family,
Jake was definitely someone I learned so much from at AGI. I'm really sorry for your loss ... you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers!

We celebrate with the Ruppenthal families the lives of both Hazel and Jake. It was a very good blessing to have the honor of being Jake & Hazel's pastor from 1976 to 1984. They contributed so much to the joy of all those who knew them and were so very important in Christ's U.M. Church.
-- the Rev'd David E. Durham, Newcastle, England

Mark and Carole, So sad to hear about your Mother and Father passing. May their many experiences in life and your times with them be in your memories and help sooth the pain of their passing. The Gilbert's, Edna, Merle, Deanna and Roy Jr.

TO ALL:

WE HAD THE PLEASURE OF KNOWING JAKE AT HEDDING METHODIST CHURCH DURING THE '50'S & 60'S. MY LATE FATHER, ASEL(ACE) E FRUTCHY & JAKE WERE VERY CLOSE FRIENDS GOING BACK TO THE 40'S!

GOD BLESS YOU JAKE!!!!
