He will be profoundly missed by his favorite cousin, Ashley Robeson; his special friend, Matthew Hammock; his special son, Collson; his nephews, Trenton Jowers and Carson Minor; and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Jacob now rests alongside his father, Dennis Owens; his grandfather, Edward Duke; and his grandparents, Tommy & Karon Owens, who preceded him in passing.

A graveside service to further honor Jacob’s life and legacy will be announced at a later date. Family and friends will be invited to gather once more to celebrate his memory in a peaceful and loving setting.

Honorary pallbearers paying tribute to Jacob’s life are Randy Snow, Trent Coody, Tiffany Copeland, and Alexis Burks.

In honor of Jacob’s memory and his passion for supporting others, the family kindly requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Go Fund Me for Jacobs funeral expenses. This meaningful gesture will help ease the burden in the family’s time of grief.
