Jacob understood that life is better off shared. He will be remembered for his infectious personality, wonderful sense of humor and quick wit.

Friends could always count on Jake to bring laughter and levity into their lives.   Following a career in banking, Jacob eventually enjoyed independence and success through real estate investing.
