Not sure what to say?

Still now I greive for Jake. I miss him so much, there was a lot of thing's we never got to say to each other before his untimely death. I have visited his graveside once a month for the past year. He was such a good friend to me and touched my life in so many way's. Jake, my dear friend I will never forget you.

We still miss you sorely.

Just like everyone else I was both shocked and saddened by the news of Jake's death. Not only was he a great friend he was an ex roommate at Austin Peay State University. I had the pleasure of visiting Jake in Danville a few times when school was out. It was easy to see where he got his great personality from. He has a wonderful family that always made me feel at home. May God Bless you and keep you all.

Jake and I attended Austin P together. Our season was cut short when he was in an auto accident and I had knee surgery. This made us even closer as borthers. I was disharded to learn of his early passing. In the next life we will play again.

I met Jake a few years back at my uncles funeral, from my understanding h and my uncle were great friends. As I sit here in Iraq at Camp Fallujah, I feel like I lost another uncle. When i was deployed to Japan , Jake used to email me and give me advice on what to look for in my militray future , and I and grateful to him for that. He will be truly missed and I know he is in a better place right nw watching over us.

Blessings and Deepest Sympathy to the Burrell Family and Friends:

I am writing from Atlanta, Georgia . While I never had the opportunity to meet Jake personally, I developed a fondness to Jake and his endearing Spirit over the passed several years. Jake became an inspiration to me through his daily devotionals and Bible Trivia.

I came to depend on his email messages, Jake's Wonderful Email Ministry, to get my spirit ready for the day. We can all remember the...

I was so very shocked and saddened by the news of Jake's sudden death. We had been comparing notes on what to do during our retirement years. I met Jake at my very first assignment in the Army at the 130th Station Hospital, Heidelberg, Germany. I was the Head Nurse of the Newborn Nursery where his daughter was born and I remember how very proud he was of her. To his family: May you keep these memories of his love for you in your hearts forever. To his friends: Always remember him as someone...

I would like to offer my deepest sympathy to the Burrell family. I fondly remember the last time we last saw each other; smiling, joking, laughing and celebrating the wedding of a very dear friend. This is the Jake his friends from MTSU knew and respected. His sophisticated charm and entertaining wit will be missed but his memory will be with us forever. Because of God’s gracious mercy we all have been blessed to have had Jake in our lives. May his family and friends find consolation in his...

To the Burell family:
May God bless in your time of saddeness. Jake was a friend and I will miss him. Until we meet again
old buddy. Peace and love!
