It is with heavy hearts that the family of Jacob Tyler DeCesare announce his passing on August 19, 2025. Jake was born on August 30, 1991 to parents John and Yvonne DeCesare. Jake was a very talented individual on many fronts. The first accomplishment of his musical talents showed through when he held First Chair trumpet in school. His love of music didn't stop there. He played guitar, the drums and wrote and performed a lot of his own music. Some of his latest work included writing scripts for theatre, and doing stand-up comedy here in Huntsville. He was also an amazing graphic artist and turned a lot of his work into some phenomenal tattoos. Jake will be missed by many friends and family that knew and loved him. Jake is survived by his mother Yvonne DeCesare, his father John DeCesare and bonus mom Judy DeCesare, brother James Proudman and life partner Lindsay Soileau. He is also survived by his niece and nephews. The family will receive friends and loved ones on Friday, August 29, 2025 from 5:00 to 8:00 PM at Sam Houston Memorial Funeral Home in Huntsville, TX.
