Not sure what to say?

Condolences to your family. I was saddened to hear of Mr. Jacobs passing. I know it´s been over a year but we just found out yesterday. Mr. Jacobs was a great boss. He always treated us with respect and was always there when we needed guidance or advice. I´ve worked at few preschools and he was one of my favorite bosses. Rest In Peace Mr. Jacobs.

Mr. J as we called him was my very 1st boss. He employed me at 19 years old almost 2 decades ago. I worked at wonderland School for almost 7 years before moving my entire life to Orange County. I have never worked for a more wonderful person in my life. Every school I worked at since did not compare to my amazing experience working for and with the most amazing people there. I became a grown up at this job, and Mr. J taught me well. He treated me like family, not an employee. My heart broke...

Just learned of Jeffs passing. I´m so sorry for your loss. I have many good memories of him and Arnold and Pearl Jacobs too.

Mr. Jacobs was a wonderful man! I worked for him at Wonderland for several years. I was so very sad to hear of his passing. Many of the staff at Wonderland that worked for him just found out today 8/26/2021. He had such a kind heart and always made us feel important no matter what we were interested in he would relate to us. He will be deeply missed.

Dear Dad, it's been a year since you said goodbye, and I love you and miss you more than ever. I think about you every day and try to always be the husband you showed me how to be. We'll all get together tomorrow to honor you, and sorry in advance for any embarrassing stories we bring up. Wine and deli sandwiches in your honor. I love you, and thank you for being the perfect dad. -Dan

Jeff Jacobs was my dad, but he meant so much more to so many people. He was also the perfect husband, brother, son, and uncle, and he approached each role with coffee and a smile.

He had the rare gift of being able to make rainy days feel like sunshine. No matter how tired he was after work, he always had energy to take me to the park to play baseball and do the dishes after dinner. My dad led by example as he showed us the value of family, hard work, education, generosity, and...
