For those of you connecting with Jacob's page, especially friends from Spain, we wanted to share some photos of our recent trip that reminded us of Jacob's time there and reminded us he was with us every day. We followed most of his itinerary that we found when we discovered his journal from the trip all written in Spanish.

him extra money as he was having too

Jake -
this wonderful day we celebrated your gift of light to us. We felt you in the wind on the Pali but more so in the love we have for one another. We also came to understand that we are to build on what we learned through you; knowing with certainty God's love for us and our place in His ever present Kingdom. Jacob, your holiness is perfect because you are One with Him who created us in love. And by His grace we are one with you. humbly and with all my love, dad

Jake,
Today I did my best to celebrate you! A good friend of mine and I celebrated together. Her Dad passed away just a few years ago and today is his birthday. You probably already met him and have swapped stories already. We went to see a movie and have pizza, your favorites. Then we had a Celebration of Life cake which she had made which had your name with a honu and her Dad's name with the Mickey Mouse symbol since his nickname was Mickey. We swapped stories about what great guys you are and laughed about the funny things we remembered. You will always be with me bro. LiveAloha Always.

My dearest Jakey,
I can't believe a year has gone by, at times I ask myself the question of "why?"; I know where you are, a bright shining star; that we are One brings me hope and encourages me to continue to cope; I know I will see you again someday, but deep in my heart I really just wanted you to stay.
Know that we celebrate YOU and US today in all we do. Thank you Jakey for the many lessons learned this past year. I love you Jib! LiveAloha!

Another full moon reminds me of that safe place we would visualize together. Swimming with the honu in the moonlight. And thanks for sending your greeting through Caspar. All my love, Mom.

Hi Jib, I know how much you love Thanksgiving...helping to prepare the cranberry relish, smothering your potatoes in gram's gravy, whacking your first helping of turkey before I even get started, and being sure to have a big topping of whip cream on mom's pumpkin pie. You know I am thinking about you and our Thanksgivings together. Today, like every day, I give thanks for you and to you. I love you, Paloma

Jacob you are my shining star.Thank you for being there through all the hard times. I really appreciate you watching over your cousin Logan as she thinks she is bigger than life right now. I ask you to talk with her on slowing down her driving as she has had a few fender benders as you have witnessed.I don't know how my parents or yours do it with all these children Uncle Gregg too,as one is enough for me. Love her so much and am worried sick everytime she drives off. Keep smiling and boy what a presentation in Washington, sorry it has taken me so long to write in your journal no excuses I love you Aunty Lisa

Jacob, your love, strength, courage, devotion and faith continue to transcend time, state lines and international boundaries. I am honored to have been a small part of your life, you a much bigger part of mine. Through your life, we, your family and friends, have become stronger in the knowledge of His love for us. You continue to hit me square in the forehead about the meaning of perspective. In His Name, Uncle Gregg.
