Jacob and family were great neighbors for a long time. I will never forget Jacob, coming by to get a Windshield Repair. His Dad was such a help to me and he did the good deeds for me for free, so in turn, Jacob never paid a dime for his Windshield repairs. Jacob was a Gentleman in every way. Janet and I loved him and his family. Jacob will be missed always....he was a true man of God.
