In the years I knew him , he had a LOVE for LIFE, and people around him were drawn to this.He continues to touching lives even today, as evidence by comments from his peers. If he has drawn one person to pray for answers ... then he fulfilled more than most could hope for in their own life.He has helped someone , somewhere walk a little closer to God.

Mitch and family,
Sorry to hear of the loss of Jake. Micah and Manning Robinson would bring Jake to our house in Midway and we called him Jake " The Snake". We will truly miss him. Our prayers and thoughts will be with you.

Jolynn, Jake and Josh were so good to Colby when he was little and we have lots of good memories. He was Colby's first "big kid" friend and he was always so patient and good with him. They were always good kids and we enjoyed them being around. Our hearts hurt for your family and your loss. Please let us know of anything that you need.

Please know that God does things for a reason and does not give you burdens that He does not think you can handle. Jake was a good person and in my eyes still is.
