we're still missing you even after over 3 months. We'll never forget you no matter what. I gave a speech two days ago to over 120 people about how hard this has been without you, and I cried in front of everyone, but I'm not ashamed because it was because I'm missing you along with everyone at CHS. have fun in Heaven.

All though I did not know Jacob very well, I did know that he was allways smiling and all ways happy. He could change your mood just by shooting you a smile. Jacob will be deeply missed. his family and his friends cared so much about him. heaven has sure gained another angel he's in good hands with God now. with all of our love we are praying and hoping the best for the Garbar family.

My heartfelt condolences to Amy, Michael, Lawrence, Emily, and the entire Garber/Kleyn families. I vividly remember a young boy who immensely loved his family. I also remember how Jacob loved to learn...whether it was his schoolwork, learning the jumpshot from his brothers (and playing basketball with Emily for hours), learning to ride a bicycle, or learning how to golf, Jacob always listened and had the drive to practice to perfection.
While my heart, along with those hearts of Morgan, Mackenzie, and Mallory, is heavy...we will miss Jacob but cherish the many memories and good times spent with him.
God Bless,
Terry Patterson & Family
