A beautiful boy, and wonderful young man was here for awhile and for that we are grateful, as we are all better to have known him. My family and I are home from his service and although we are still deeply saddened for your loss, we are forever happy that we knew him, spent time with him and got to know him a little better by the words of his family and friends at such a lovely memorial to the spirit, the heart and the soul that was and is Jacob. Much love and much hope for healing in this more than difficult time. Peace and rest be yours, Christie Wood and family

Jacob I miss you. We just started talking again and then this happens. I'm glad you found me on that stupid app to get ahold of me but I am not glad it was only for a short period of time. I wish I could turn back time and have kept in touch better. For that I am sorry. I know you wouldn't want me to feel bad, but I do. I wish I could have told you that I loved ya and missed ya before everything happened. Just know that you and all of your family are in my thoughts and prayers. You are an amazing person Jacob and for that I love you.

I'll never forget the "little Jacob" I knew over 15 years ago. I'll never forget the times we shared once we were all grown up, or the last time I saw you as you nervously prepared for the responsibility of fatherhood. I have thought of you often since our last encounter and the man you had grown to be. Today I am grateful for the positive impact of your friendship and consider myself lucky to have the memories that will forever remain in my heart. You will be missed by so many.

Dear Vallen Family: I saw Jacob every day at Dilly's Deli in Scottsdale. My friends and I would go there after Jazzercise every morning for coffee. Jacob always greeted us with a big smile. He was so sweet, happy, friendly ... pleasant and respectful of us. It was a joy to see him. May God hold you close as you grieve, and may your lifetime of memories bring you comfort. RIP, sweet Jacob.
