My heart felt sympathy goes out to Jake's family. I was a classmate of his from DAHS, and it's just a shock to hear of his passing. May God be with his family through this time of tradgedy.

Although I havnt talked to Jake since middle school, I always knew he was a great guy to have as your friend and I feel horrible for losing contact with him. I knew him as a caring, sensitive guy who could give you great advice as to how to deal with anything you're going though. That would be an incredible thing to use right now... I recently lost my brother and know what it's like to lose someone close to you, but I know it's even harder for the two people who brought him into the world. I hope you've heard of the support group called "compassionate friends". My parents go there now and it's a support group for parents who have lost a child... and although my parents lost my brother, Mike, in a different way than most people there, they find a way to connect with them. If you havn't heard of them, feel free to e-mail me. I will give you any contact information you need.



My heart is with you and I will keep you in my prayers as I know many have done for me.



Sincerely,



Shelly Cohen

Wow, what to say. It's always tragic when someone we know goes so soon. I feel for the parents, family and friends. We didn't even make it to the 5 year reunion of high school.



I knew Jake from our german class, as well as band.

I just felt that I had to write something. My daughter Amy Beard went to school with your son and only just found out of his passing. She actually ran into him a few weeks ago in Lancaster after not seeing him for at least a year. We send heartfelt sympathy to you and your family. Please remember the good times.

Kindest regards, Louise Barrett

Jake was such a sweet person. There wasn't a thing he wouldn't do to make everyone smile. I'll never forget his smile! He will be so greatly missed. May God keep you close in your time of need.

Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship,

My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip,

My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels

To be wanderin'.

I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade

Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way,

I promise to go under it.



Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,

I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,

In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.



WE LOVE YOU JAKE
