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.

Hi Jacob,

We're so sorry this space in the world (your website) was unavailable during the holidays. The electrical outages made the lights go out and the servers go down, but you still lit the way in everyone's heart, even if they didn't have the chance to express it here. I'm sure your loved ones have plenty to share, so we'll let them know it's working right away!

Uncle Jakey,
Your niece is absolutely beautiful. She is lucky to have an uncle like you to watch over her. We put one of our favorite pictures of you in her room to keep an eye on her. She and mommy are doing great. We can't wait to get back to HI so we can swim at all your favorite spots.
Aloha,
Cielo

Hi Jake -
you know we're waiting anxiously for the birth of Makani! She too will be a bringer of light like her Uncle. Your light gives us the sight to recognize the difference between the what has meaning and what doesn't. When one can see that difference it is so much easier to remebmer that we are sustained by God's eternal love. We can feel His presence within us, strong, unchanging and peaceful.
with Oceans of Love, yo dad

Aloha Jib, you know this already and probably knew it all along...I know what I need now to do His will. Thank you for guiding my mind, heart, spirit and words. With you and the Holy Spirit, I know all things are possible especially when done with LOVE.
FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE...the greatest of these is LOVE (thanks for teaching me this).

Knowing you are stronger than ever, please be with us as we are called to help others here to understand life is eternal.

Love you - and you say "love you back" - and I say I loved you first and forever.

Jake -
As you know Son I'm a slow learner. But with the ever growing light I'm beginning to see. Choosing to remember that our holiness is His will brings us vision. We begin to understand that we are here to here to bless, to comfort and to heal.
You are our gift of light Son.

An internet surfer, an unknown friend

Dear Family and Friends of Jacob,
What a blessing you had on earth with Jacob. I didn't know him but I know he was so dear to his family. My daughter too is a lover of the ocean and the sea turtles. One time she and her Dad were surfing and found a large sea turtle with ropes and a milk jug wrapped around it so it couldn't go under water. They plopped it up on the board and freed it from the ropes. I can only imagine your pain but I'm so thankful you have the great memories. You know he is so special to our Lord if he is so loved by you. God is always with you. A Friend in Christ
