  1. I am so sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in God’s Word where he promises soon to ‘swallow up death forever and…wipe the tears from all faces.’ (Isaiah 25:8)

  2. I was so sadden to hear of the passing of Jake, he will definately be missed by everyone. He always had a smile and a kind word for all who knew him. My prayer for his family is that God will take each of you and guide you through the days ahead, and wrap his arms around you and that you all will feel the love of our Saviour. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. This is a beautiful tribute to Jake. Knowing that he sits beside the Lord now. Rest in peace my SPECIAL friend.
