My thoughts and prayers are with Jake's family. My husband, Dick and I were Jake's neighbor in Vadnais Heights, MN. Whenever we saw Jake, he would have a big smile and good things to say. He will be missed. He always talked about his family visits at his brother's house in Hudson.
I'm down in Florida and won't be able to be at his service, but will have him in my thoughts and prayers. RIP Jake

My thoughts and prayers go out to Jake's family. I was one of Jake's neighbors in Vadnais Height, MN along with my husband Dick Cieminski.
Jake always had a smile and good thing to say every time I saw him. I'm down in Florida now, so I won't be able to come to his service, I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers. He will be missed.
