On Wednesday, May 6, 2020, our beloved Jacob was struck and killed by a hit and run driver. Jacob was walking at the intersection of North Pointe Prairie Road and Highway 61, near Wentzville, Missouri. He was struck by a late model (estimated 2015), black or silver Dodge Ram pickup truck, heading South on Highway 61 (around 8 pm?). The driver left the scene and did not report the incident.

Left us way too soon
Jacob was a sensitive, sweet, kind, helpful, gentle and eager to please young man. He was smart, creative, an exceptional student and a wiz with computers and electronics, loved robotics, yet equally devoted to choir and theater. Jacob was a loving and caring son, devoted brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend. He was an aspiring thespian whose smile could light up a room. His lankiness led to some clumsy and funny moments, yet he had an uncanny ability to laugh at himself. His goofy, animated personality made him the unique snowflake we adored. He is and will always be much loved by all who were lucky enough to know him.
I don’t fear my own death because it will be my reunion with my heart
Always in my mind Forever in my heart
If you only knew how much those little moments matter
Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.
