Jacob was an amazing friend and brother. He was always there when I needed him. He also saved my life once and always had wisdom. He also had an amazing voice and could cook out of this world. Love & Miss you.

Son, here it is 12 yrs later and I can remember your passing like yesterday. I weep and feel a tremendous loss today. Ill never forget you or the good memories we shared. Youd love my place as much if not more than Josh. I stared at your pictures and played a video and heard your voice and laughter. It brought a smile to my face. I love you and always will. You are alive in my heart and mind. Till we meet again.........

I can't believe it's been 10 years already. I still drive by that site and makes me cry. You had a huge heart and so much to give. Miss you and wish we had more time together. I remember driving to work and you talking about how I would just listen to Christian music lol.

Dad, 10 years and 10 days ago, you left us. You went to a better place, but we'll always miss you. I miss you. I miss you everyday. It never ceased to amaze me all these years, that you were really gone. I think i have it the worst out of me and Micah. I won't lie, I sometimes think about everything that could've been if you hadn't died that day. I am astonished by how fast these years have passed. Where has my life gone since you left. It's like I time traveled and hit 15 in seconds. Point is,,I MISS YOU.
LOVE YOU,

My heart is broken! We spent some great times together many years ago. I'm heartbroken to learn of your passing and sad we will never have a chance to reconnect and catch up.
As I look at the pictures, I can't believe Micah and Jaylen aren't babies anymore. Time flies!
You will always hold a special place in my heart, Jacob.

Think about you often my friend. I cherish the time we had together.

Thoughts of you come forth every morning as I pray for Micah and Jaylen. I see you smiling in my mind and I feel that sense of loss all over again. It still aches. No parent should ever have to bury their children especially their baby boy. I looked up the location of the accident and saw the cross placed by Joshua is in bad need of some maintenance. You are sorely missed. Hope you are enjoying yourself with Dad, Uncle Lester, Maw and Mom as well as all family who have left for Heaven. As always, love you Son. Keep a close eye on Micah and pray for him. He needs it.

Son, You have filled my thoughts and my heart has wept as I miss you every day since you left us. I remember your gift of gab, your humor, laughter, and all the expressions you made. Sometimes I still find myself smiling along with my memory of yours. You are still very much alive in my memory and heart and so you continue to live on. Love forever. Dad
Unforgettable smile!

You are always in my heart. In my mind, my memories of us live on and are shared from time to time. They often bring a smile to my face but there are those times when a tear or two will track down my face missing you. I sometimes hear your laughter and remember your wonderful smile. Happy 34th birthday son. You live on in me and many others because you are a part of all of us. Love you and miss you alot. Till we meet again. Dad

What I would give for just one more time to say
I Love You , one more hug , one last kiss good-bye,
I thought there would be more time,
that some how you would always be there, that you could never die.
I know you are in Heaven, but I love and miss you, my heart deeply grieves.
I would give anything to have you,if but for a moment,once again here with me.
Love you always,
Mom

~ Happy 32nd Birthday Son ~
If I was sitting down to write
A birthday card to you today
I would search my heart to find the words
I'd really like to say
From the moment of your birth
You've been the treasure of my heart
You are my son, my dearest one
The best that heaven could impart
No greater joy my life could bring
Than to give my life away
For all I give, is then to you
My heart of love on your birthday
Missing you alot
On this your special day
Forever your MOM

We Love and Miss you Lots!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD
If I could wish upon a star
And make that wish come true
I 'd make a wish for one more day
To spend my life with you
I'd hold you safely in my arms
And pray we'd never part
Swap stories we had never shared
Then just talk heart to heart
I'd make you laugh, tickle your sides
Drown in your smiling face
Snuggle, cuddle, with all my might
To feel your warm embrace
if only stars somehow could 'feel'
And wishes could come true
I know all Stars would grant to me
To have that day with you

We think of you always and miss you beyond words. You would be celebrating your 32nd birthday today. Mom and I woke this morning and the first words we spoke together as we held each other's hand were Happy Birthday Jacob. We watched the only video of you we have as you played with your babies teaching them how to play the drums on plastic coffee containers and it brought a smile to our face. To hear your voice, your laughter, and see you once again was comforting yet we long to hold you in our arms and share all the love we have for you. Til we meet again, we love you son.

November 3, 2011
It's your Angelversary son, It's been 4 years since that day ,The day I lost my heart and soul, The day God took you away. It's your angelversary son and I'm doing the best that I can just to get through ,But the only thoughts that fill my mind, are the thoughts of me and you and the kids. I still can't believe it happened, I still can't believe that you're gone.
I think about you day and night, And I want to be up there with you too, but I know I can't...and I have to wait, And there's nothing more that I can do. To the rest of the world you were a "fine young man" Who accomplished a lot...and that's true. But to me you were just my "baby boy," With so much living left to do. Your life was ended way too soon, and it wasn't supposed to be that way and I just wish I could go back in time, and change that awful day.
They say that time will heal all wounds but this hole in my heart will never heal. And I wake up in the middle of the night, and I don't even know what's real. So I write this poem, for you my son on your 4th Angelversary with the hopes that someone will read it and finally right the wrong for me 'Cause all I have left is your kids , and my hope and faith that the right thing will finally be done. I seal this poem with all the love that a mother can give to a son.
3-3-3 forever

HAPPY 31ST BIRTHDAY!
I was blessed to be chosen
to birth you on earth,
We are connected,
My child and I, by
An invisible cord
Not seen by the eye.
It's not like the cord
That connects us 'til birth
This cord can't been seen
By any on Earth.
This cord does it's work
Right from the start.
It binds us together
Attached to my heart.
I know that it's there
Though no one can see
The invisible cord
From my child to me.
The strength of this cord
Is hard to describe.
It can't be destroyed
It can't be denied.
It's stronger than any cord
Man could create
It withstands the test
Can hold any weight.
And though you are gone,
Though you're not here with me,
The cord is still there
But no one can see.
It pulls at my heart
I am bruised...I am sore,
But this cord is my lifeline
As never before.
I am thankful that God
Connects us this way
A mother and child
Death can't take it away!
Happy Birthday Son
I Love You & Miss You
Your Mom always and forever

May the Lord continue to comfort each one of us on earth that you left behind and may we shine for Him throughout our daily lives. I will forever love you and miss you. Mom

Here I am reflecting on you this day before you would have turned 31 yrs of age. Time has moved so quickly but not so fast that you have not crossed my mind each day of my life. I MISS YOU SO MUCH! I cherish the memories we shared in your short 27 yrs here. I believe that God knows best and that He took you home at the right time. Still, I ache for just another moment to hold you and to show you the love in my heart for you. Love you forever. Dad

Jacob,
As time has pass I will never forget the times we spent together. The good and the bad it did not matter because we were always there for eachother. It is so hard to think of you not being here.
I think about your two beautiful kids, Jaylen and Micha, who we worried about all the time. You always tried so hard to make evrything as good as you could for them. I talk about you all the time whith my other friends, always bragging about how well behaved your children were, and how I hope mine turn out the same way.
Your friendship is missed dearly
RIP your Bro

For My Brother, Jacob
I always took for granted,
what I thought I'd never lose.
Because I thought it would never happen,
until I heard the horrible news.
They say you were chosen for His garden,
His preciously hand-picked bouquet.
"God must’ve really needed him,
And that's why he couldn’t stay."
Saying goodbye is never easy,
It's been the hardest thing to do.
But what hurts me even more,
There was no chance to say it to you.
So today, Jesus, as you are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my brother,
And give him all my love?
I love you, Jake.
Kris

Until We Meet Again Daddy,
Each morning when we awake
we know that you are gone.
And no one knows the
heartache,
As we try to carry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness
and many tears flow.
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you,
Your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
There will always be a heartache,
and often a silent tear,
But always a precious memory
Of the days when you were here.
If tears could make a staircase,
And heartache make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you home again.
We hold you close within our
hearts, And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our
lives:
Until We Meet Again!
Our Family chain is broken now,
And nothing will be the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again!
We Love You & Miss You Daddy
Your Daughter & Your Son

Dearest Jacob,
Happy Angelversary! 1 Year Today!
One Wish:
Your time here was shorter
Than we'd wanted it to be,
And every moment you've been gone,
There's emptiness in me.
We thought we'd have a lifetime
That we could share with you.
We hoped & wished for many things
That now will not come true.
But no matter what may come our way,We'll always have one wish:
To tell you, now & evermore
How much you're loved & missed!
I Love You & Miss You Son!
Your Mother Always!

Dear Jacob,
With our thoughts on you, yesterday evening we gathered on the front lawn and looked toward heaven. It was clear and the stars were just beginning to shine. We all wrote a personal note to you on the helium filled balloons then released them all together. We watched silently as they drifted up higher and higher. Moving towards Austin the balloons seemed to be dancing together in celebration of your birthday. We continued to watch silently with smiles on our face as the balloons drifted out of sight. The smiles were for you and the loving memories that we each shared with you. Our hearts are filled with love for you and always will be. We miss you so much. Happy 28th Birthday Son. Your memory will live on. Afterwards we all went back inside and had some of your birthday cake and some ice cream making more memories we will cherish forever. We will forever be grateful for the time the Lord gave to us with you. Love ya bunches, Dad and Mom

Hello Mr. Babin,
There is not a day that goes by that I do not think of you, but you know that. There never was. You are truly one of the most beautiful souls that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting & I can't imagine ever meeting another like you or one that could even compare to you. Thank you for your loving words, your wisdom, & the laughter we gave to eachother. I will see you again & I look forward to that day. I love you. I always have & always will. You told me never to say goodbye to you, so I wont. See you later gorgeous.

Jacob,
I feel so terribly sad, words can't even describe the feelings that are rushing through me right now. I found out of your passing via your mom, yesterday 2/13, only because I had been sending you IM's to your myspace. I found it hard to believe it but it was confirmed by Lisa today. I am so glad that we got to go eat in October. After that I never saw you again nor will I. I will keep you in my prayers and will ALWAYS remember you. It's hard to forget a room mate that was so much like myself.
GODSPEED

I can only pray that I touched your life a fraction of the way you touched mine. Your legacy lives on through your gorgeous children; I look into their eyes and see you looking back at me. I'm proud! Every promise I made to you will be kept. I will miss, love, and think of you everyday until we're together again: Your Brother Joshua

The hole you leave behind is so obviously felt by those who loved you. For the past four years we were family, and you were always so kind and friendly, willing to share a laugh. I am so sorry, and I am so sorry for Jaylen and Micah and the rest of your family. In time our broken hearts will be replaced by gratitude that we have an angel looking down on us, but for now we just miss you. God bless you, Jacob.

I didn't know you as long as I had hoped but in the time I did you blessed me in so many ways. You had the biggest heart of anyone I've ever known. You found a way to make me smile every single day. You told me you were happy you finally had the chance to prove to me how you felt about me and I never got the chance to tell you that you did. I will cherish the short time we had together forever and find comfort in knowing I will see you again one day. I know everyone up there is walking around with "cheese smiles" because you're there. Kisses.

Dear sweet Jacob,
God blessed us, each one, with your love, laughter and zeel for life. Now God has chosen to craddle you close, in his loving arms. He gently speaks peace within our hearts, and reminds us, once again we will meet. So while we wait, upon that grand day, we cherish our memories of you and smile, because we know this separation is only for a short while.
We know within our hearts, that if you could say but one last thing, it would be something like this.
Dear loved ones, It doesn't matter where you have traveled in life, it doesn't matter what you have done. Follow my last steps, accept the lord Jesus into your heart, so that for all eternity we may join as one.
Our love and thoughts are upon you, dear sweet Jacob.

Babe,
I knew you were like no one else the moment I met you. Your smile, laugh, and charm pull people close to you and I was smitten from the beginning. God blessed me with the time I did have with you and I look forward to seeing you again. And though it pains us all that we cannot see you, hug you, and make more memories with you, we will hold onto what memories we were lucky enough to share with you. I will miss you each and every day but I carry you in my heart. I am comforted in knowing that you are at peace and looking down on all of us from Heaven.
You have given me fond memories over the past three years of you, Micah, and Jaylen. I will share those memories with your children so that they can know the love and devotion you have for them. I know you will be watching over them.
I love you and I'll be seeing you,
