In memory of Jacob

The outpouring of love and support in the wake of Jacob’s passing has been nothing short of incredible. It’s a testament to the kind of person he was—a man whose heart was as vast as his smile, whose laughter was infectious, and whose presence brought light to every room. Jacob had a rare gift: he made everyone around him feel seen, valued, and loved. His family and friends were everything to him, and he poured his love into each of them, creating bonds that will never be broken.

Jacob’s impact on those who knew him cannot be measured, and the grief we all feel is matched only by the gratitude we have for having had him in our lives. Many of you have reached out, asking how you can help during this difficult time. Your support, prayers, and kind words mean the world to his family, and we are deeply touched by your willingness to come together in this way.

This GoFundMe has been created to help provide support for Jacob’s family as they navigate the difficult days ahead. Julie will be the beneficiary of these funds and will use them to cover funeral expenses and assisting with ongoing needs. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference to Julie and the kids. Thank you for honoring Jacob’s memory and continuing to surround his loved ones with the same love and warmth that he so freely shared.
