Jake,
I saw you grow from a young boy into a wonderful man, although I feel robbed at the amount of time we were able to spend together. Thank you for coming out to see us in Kendall as often as you did. I pray that my children grow up to be as amazing as you. It's difficult to understand why someone like you would be taken away from us so soon, with so much to offer.
I could listen to stories of you, both funny and inspiring, all day. After listening to the ones closest to you I feel deprived at the amount of time we had.
We will continue to be sad without you but promise to keep you in our hearts forvever!! We also promise to do what we can for your mom, Krissy & Katie.
I'll be waiting patiently for our next kick-ball game! We love you and will miss you deeply.
Love,
Aunt Halia, Uncle Denny, Jonathan, Autumn & Alayna

To Jake's Family & Friends,
We are sure that you all must be so grateful to have had such a special and wonderful man in your lives. We only met Jake a couple of times but felt like we knew him forever. Our niece Alisha was generous to share her very close friend with us, her family. Jake fit right in and he was one of those unique fun persons that you just love and connect with immediately. What an awesome young man!
Our hearts are very saddened for you all and we know you are deeply brokenhearted. Please accept our love and condolences even though you don't know us. We are praying for God's peace and loving comfort for you all during this very difficult time.
-Denice, Tony & Christa Cavallo and Joey LeoGrande

Barb, Traci, Krisi, Katie, and family,
He was always your Rock when you needed him to be.
He was more than a brother, He was your everything.
He loved all of you so much,
But God need him in Heaven for something more than us.
He can never be replaced, and will be missed so much and by so many,
great times and memories you know we have plenty.
He has a special place in my heart and so do all of you.
You guys are always in my thoughts and prayers with much Love.

Jake, our journey was so long and yet so ever shortened. We traveled throughout the country chasing every storm. No matter where we went you touched someone's life and they could see what kind of special person you were. Just like those of us around you at home already knew. You were my best friend and it was a privilege to me to have been your friend. Don't worry about your sisters, I will be there for them for whatever they need. As you said in our last conversation, I'll see you on the other side.

As we pass through life,
we think it will never go away...
you take the small moments for granted,
thinking there's always another day.
But what happens now,
another day will never be seen...
Did you make every moment the most
Or did something always get in between.
You can't live in regrets,
You know you did the best you could...
You loved him with all your heart,
You know you loved him like you should.
You will never forget him,
It's a void that you can never replace...
Each day you will always miss seeing,
that wonderful smile on his face.
You know he is in peace now,
and one day you will be too...
Until you meet again,
just remember how much he loved you.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
June 15, 2009
Jake, your dad would be so proud of the man you became as we all are. Please continue to look over your sisters and mom. We will all miss you. love, Uncle Dan, Grandpa Walt, Grandma Dolly and the rest of the Steffen clan.

I had only met Jake a couple of times through one of his dear friends, who is my niece, Alisha. That is all it took to make a lasting impression, it was obvious from just those couple of times that he was a very special person. I am so sad to hear of his passing. My heart is with my niece and his entire family. I am so sorry for your loss.
