Jeffrey Jacobs Obituary
Scottsdale - It is with great sadness that the family of Jeffrey Jacobs announces his passing after a lengthy illness on Thursday, June 11, 2020 at the age of 72. He went peacefully to Heaven with his family by his side. Jeff was born on March 9, 1948 to Eshia and Louise Jacobs in Flint, Michigan. Jeff is survived by his wife Nancy of almost 52 years, his sister, Quida who lives in Florida; Tom (Sheryl) from Horton, MI; Laura (Greg) McNally in Scottsdale, AZ; Robert (Sabrina) in Peoria, AZ, and seven grandchildren. Jeff graduated from Plymouth High School in 1967 and went on to attend Eastern Michigan University. He took over his father's business, Michigan Extruded Aluminum, in 1976. He raised his children in Jackson, Michigan and then moved to Scottsdale in 1995. Jeff enjoyed the business world, muscle cars and connecting with great friends. He was a man who cared for others, especially his family. A memorial service will be planned at a later date due to the pandemic. Donations can be made to Jackson Christian School 4200 Lowe Rd. Jackson, MI 49203 www.jacksonchristianschool.org (gift: Jeff Jacobs Memorial) or Mayo Clinic Kidney Transplant Program, www.philanthropy.mayoclinic.org (gift: Kidney Transplant).

Nancy, Holly just sent me the sad news about dear Jeff's passing. How blessed he was on earth with such a great wife and family and how much more blessed he is now as he enters the "big leagues" of a life of eternal joy thanks to our Jesus! Our love and sympathy are with you all, my friend. "When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing (and reunion!) that will be!"

I am so sorry for your family's loss. He will always have a special place in my heart. We had so many amazing conversations over the years on all different topics. He was always there ready to give me advice on all different topics from buying my house, buying a new car, and even when I proposed to my wife. He always took a personal interest in what I had going on outside of work. He always made me feel as if my family was part of his. I will never forget him reminding me that my stepson had a spelling test in the morning I had forgotten about. I really wish more people had gotten to know him the way I did.

This is Karen Macleod and Im just happy for Jeff that he will not be in pain anymore and hes with Jesus. But Im sorry and sad for the family because I know you guys loved him so much. When I first met Jeff in 1998 I remembered how funny he was. I always tell my friends here in Michigan that he could sell a freezer to an Eskimo! Again so sorry. May the Lord bless you and keep you and may his Light shine upon you and give you peace.

Nancy,
So sorry to hear of the passing of Jeff. Although we haven't seen you in years, I can't forget what a great family you were. I so enjoyed seeing the whole family at the Y for family swim every weekend. You could see and feel the closeness and the love in the family. God Bless!
