You will be missed Uncle Jake. You always could brighten up a room. We loved the big bonfires and boat stories. Rest in Peace

Truly Truly will be missed more than I can say. Uncle Jake was Tim’s inspiration for going in the Navy… (oh the stories 🙂 – it seemed like him and Dad were almost two of a kind being able to make things and repair and I remember all the great visits with him and Judy when were back in MN to visit.

We are sending much love to Aunt Judy, Jenny, Barry, Janelle, Scott, Kelsey, Kooper and Hazel.
Uncle Jake was one of a kind and I am thankful for the wonderful memories and loved shared. I can only imagine the celebration taking place and am quite certain it involves a big roaster pan of hot buttered popcorn. Keep an eye on us until we see you again, Uncle Smell Good.

You will be missed dearly , thank you much for leaving me such kind memories of you here on Earth. I will see you later my uncle, and we’ll catch up then.
