Hey Jake. It's been almost 3 years since you've left this world. As a cousin, I have never seen so much compassion and determination from a boy like you and me. Those 12 years were
some of the best of my life and I know that Bo and Nolan would say the same.It is hard to express the pain in my heart that you are now gone but I know I will see you someday in heaven celebrating and having fun.
