Jake is at peace now. It's a horrible disease and so difficult to cure. My son has been going through this for the last 9 years. My prayers are with you and your family to also find peace in all of this. God is with you and he will help you move forward.

I had only met jake once or twice, my husband faced the same addiction but overcame it. Unfortunately he passed away in June and I am sure he is welcoming jake into paradise. My condolences to the family and friends.

I didn't know him, and don't know your family, but the obit. broke my heart. You are so smart to say the reason he passed away. I pray that parents will share this sad truth with their children.. my Granddaughter is fighting the drug demons. God bless your family.
