JAKE’S STORY

Jake was an exceptional young man loved by his family, friends, and community. He was kind and always saw the positive. He had a great sense of humor and an infectious spark about him. He loved the outdoors, music, and sports, lettering in football and wrestling. He was never the biggest guy on his team, but had the biggest heart. As an excellent student at the top of his class, Jake received his Degree in Chemistry posthumously from the University of Nevada. He had a strong work ethic and was an important role model for his brother and sister. In January 2020, two days shy of his 21st birthday, Jake passed after a tragic accident. He would take pride in knowing his decision to be a donor saved three people with his liver and kidneys. Everyone whose life he touched profoundly misses him.
