Jacob was a wonderful,loving companion to my mother Carolyn. I wished he had lived longer, so that he could have shared that love with his family. I think of Jakey, now in the heavens, flying fishing, enjoying a few, without sorrow of soul or body. He and my mom laughing. You are greatly missed.
Love,
Susan.
