I am thinking of Jacob today and remembering the times all the kids were together laughing and joking around like they always did when they all got together!! The one thing that stands out for me is Jacob always had a smile on his face. I don't think I ever saw him frown!! Not once!! My nephew, Dustin Keene, considers Jacob one of his closest friends. Our deepest thoughts and prayers are with all of Jacob's family and friends. Know that Jacob will always be in our hearts right beside Katie!! They are together now, both of them angels watching over us all. Please let me, Debbie, or Dustin know if you need anything!! Anything at all!!
Love Donna and Debbie (the twins) and Dustin.
