You will always be in my heart. You had the kindest soul. You never failed to make me laugh. You’re my soulmate and my other half and my best friend. I miss playing my mandolin for you…you called me your songbird. I can’t thank you enough for all you did for me. I’ll love you always 💜

I love you Jake! I miss you more than you ever know. You are my brown eyed Young man. Everybody you met fell in love with you. You were humorous and you had such a big heart. There isn’t anything that you wouldn’t do for anybody. You’re contagious smile lit up the world. You are my world Jake and you left this world way too soon. I know that you’re looking down from heaven on all of us. And I know that Grandma and Grandpa are hugging you. I miss your big bear hugs. I love you forever, Mom

We took our annual Christmas picture. Every year you tried to find the ugliest Christmas sweater you could. I think this one won.

This is your dog Boba Fett. When we adopted him you just had to name him after your favorite Star Wars character. You got a tattoo of the Mandalorian on the back of your right leg for Boba Fett. You always took such great pictures of Boba, sometimes even making him look wolf like. He loves you so and lays at your door waiting for you to come home.
