He will be sorely missed, but we know we’ll see him again, here on earth (John 5:28, 29). He looked forward to that time, and being reunited with his wife.
Jake was very happy to have learned the truth about God and his promises for the earth, and would share his faith with any who would listen. He held a number of jobs in his life, including Presidential Homes, the Railroad, and he retired from Lenape High School. He was a consummate worker. He worked hard every day, well into his 90’s.
