I can still see Jacob in the halls of Westview Middle School, like he owned the joint!! What a life this young man had, and what a legacy he has left behind. My prayers and thoughts are with his family.

Rest in peace Jacob, I will miss you like you won't know. My heart stopped when I found out. You were always such a great person with such and awesome personality and laughter I will truly miss that. I've known you since 6th grade and there was never a time where you weren't smiling, I'm sure even now you are smiling down while watching over us. You will be missed. Love you!

Thinking of the first time I met you...I thought,"Is this guy for real?...there is no way he is 16....16 going on 30!!!" Being a first year teacher, stress was common place. Anytime I saw Jacob, his smile would light up my day, his commentary on the little pad of paper....Amazing the voice he had with just that. You will be missed by all who knew you, but never forgotten. I can't tell you how many times I have told people about your story over the last 12 years, always ending it with.."He is an amazing person." Jacob, you made the world a better place to be, thank you for being in mine. Love you. Francine Tucker

Dear Little Jacob, I will remember him running around Graham Elementary...playing jokes at Westview Middle School and his impish grin. Once again, he is running across the playgrounds in heaven.
