Michael Jacobs Obituary

Nov. 11, 1958 - Sept. 11, 2020 Michael Dean Jacobs passed away peacefully on September 11, 2020. Michael was born in Los Angeles. He found early success working with his father in the automobile business, but soon decided to pursue his passion as a performer. He toured the country as a stand-up comedian, performed in live theatre, movies and TV. He memorably played Maxx Orbison in "Orgazmo", a cult classic. Michael moved to Las Vegas in 2014 and added author to his legacy, publishing "The Pugville Chronicles" in 2019. Michael loved music, was a natural entertainer, quick witted, and a generous soul. He is predeceased by his father, Martin Jacobs, and is survived by his mother, Sylvia; his siblings, Janet (Terry) and Greg, and a loving extended family and many friends. He will be deeply missed. May his memory be a blessing. In lieu of flowers, please donate to your favorite charity in Michael's memory.

I met Michael while working at Martin Chevrolet. He was just starting to get going with his acting career at that time. He was so warm and friendly and very funny. He always had a smile on his face and a plan in motion. I know his family must be heart-broken; I send my heartfelt condolences and prayers to them all. Much love, Michael....on to better days my friend.
