Jacob Brian Taft

I think of you often. I always loved making music with you and there was no other guitarist I enjoyed playing with more.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Brenda,
Recived a letter from your mom today.
So sorry for you loss. If I would have known I would have been there on Sunday. My deepest symathy.

Dear Jake,

After years of not speaking we were finally rebuilding a beautiful friendship. Thank you for the love and generosity you showed me when I first moved to NY. I will never forget the time I came to your old apartment during the three day black out. My hair smelled a foul odor after days of not being able to wash it. You said, "Sweetie, I have a running shower if you want to wash up." And I said, "Nah, I'm too tired I'll shower later." And then in a pleading voice you...

I have many memories of Jacob. Too many to list, but a few special ones stand out in my mind. The performance he gave his Grandfather & I. He stood in front of us doing an impersonation of Elvis with imaginary guitar singing Hound Dog. Thanksgiving was great with him. He would enjoy mounds of mashed potatoes & all the trimmings. Then he would put a plateful of food on top of the refrigerator for a nightly "snack". He will be greatly missed. He was immensely loved by all.

Love, MEM

Jake, I will always remember your kind heart and your hearty laugh that made everyone happy to be around you. You are missed deeply by many. may your soul rest in peace.

Jacob was the most beautiful baby, fun-loving little boy, who grew to become an intelligent, warm, and caring man.
I will cherish all my memories and keep his love forever close to my heart. I will alway be proud and honored to have been his Godmother.
My heartfelt sympathy to Jacob's parents and families.

All my love, GGG
