You've been on my mind all week, Jake. I've got a brand new Great Grandson. His name is Knox Jacob. I still mourn every day for the man that you didn't have the time to become.
I remember how much you loved California. I think you'd love Florida more. I'm sad that you won't get to stay with us and see it.
I'll miss you forever until I get to see you again.
Love,
Auntie Robin

Today is the 7th anniversary of that horrible day we lost you, Jake. The pain of this memory is still fresh in my mind and my anguish has not diminished. I still think about, and miss you every day. I mourn for the life and dreams that we had for the man that you would have become.
We will all be reunited one day, but until then, rest in Paradise, my beloved Godchild.
I will always love and miss you,
Auntie Robin

Jake, today you would have been 28 years old. Your family, all of us, still miss you and think of you every day. Grandpa still cries when he talks about you, so do I. It's difficult to sort out the emotions. I mostly feel the anger because you were taken away at such a young age. But, there is the profound sadness, too.

Jake, my dear, darling nephew,
We celebrated Thanksgiving early this year. Grandpa and Grandma came back up from Florida so Grandpa could go deer hunting with the guys. You were missed, as you will always be. Your legacy, Jake, and you would have been very happy, Chad went hunting with Grandpa J. and the boys this year. They were all sad that you were not there, too.
Thank you for the wonderful times. I will always love you and miss you. I know that you don't want me to remember you with my tears, but the wound is still too fresh. In a week or two I'm taking your cousins, Melody and her daughter Kimmy, to Orlando to stay with your beloved Grandma and Grandpa Juelich. I wish you were coming with us. I will never forget our trip to California, Jake. We had so much fun. You were always the one who saw the fun and the humor in everything -- that is what I will remember about you... Your sweet and loving nature, the fun side of you, your good humor, your generosity.
I miss you sweet Jakey, I always will.
Love,
Auntie Robin

Dear Jamie and Josh, I think of you often and continue to pray that God and time will bring you comfort and peace. I stop at the cemetary sometimes on my way home from work and like to see the new gifts and notes left for Jake by friends and loved ones. I am so thankful that Jake wrote to Chad and for the beautiful new relationship that came from that letter. What a blessing. Love you so much.

Jake,
You will be missed by many. Your time here was short but what you did with that time was wonderful. You were a great friend to many people and cared about every one of them. My prayers and condolences go out to the friends and family of this sweet man. You will be missed and loved forever but you will never be forgotten.

To the family of Jacob Juelich:
My heart goes out to your family and I am truly sorry for your loss of your loved one, Jacob. I am a friend of Jeff and Linda Juelich's, and although I can not recall if I have met Jacob at any of their family parties and such, I do know how very important family is and that life can sometimes be shortened. May you find comfort in each other and your memories of Jacob-these will help with your healing and I trust that God will accept Jacob into heaven and keep all of you in his care.
From my heart and soul-

Jamie and family,
My heart aches for all of you. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Jamie, I have never felt so moved as I did when you told me that you had said everything you needed to say to Jacob while he was still alive. You will always have that comfort. God bless you and I know that there is a new angel watching over all of you.
