From Don Norwalk:
I am very sorry to share with you that our beloved friend and favorite wild man Jimmy Jacobs passed away from complications due to cancer early Thursday morning. Jimmy is survived by his wife Melissa Jacobs and many many friends and adopted nephews and nieces.
Jimmy was so many things. He was smart as a whip. He had a wonderful sense of humor and knew how to apply it. He was always the ultimate “give you the shirt off his back” person for someone who needed it. He was his Dad’s son. He was loved by so many of us.
Jimmy will always be a part of us and we celebrate the blessing of Jimmy in our lives. Thank you Jimmy and God Bless You my brother.
