In Memory of
In August 2023, our family experienced a tragic loss when our beloved son, brother, and grandson, Jacob Rhoades, passed away.
He loved deeply and gave all.
Jacob was a young man with big dreams and a strong determination to achieve them. He lived his life with purpose, working hard, supporting others, and always willing to lend a helping hand. He was a loyal friend, a dedicated worker, and someone who truly made an impact on those around him.
Jacob had a natural entrepreneurial spirit and was already building a future he was passionate about. In the short time since graduating high school, he had accomplished so much and was in the process of starting his own company.
Through organ donation, Jacob’s legacy continues to live on, bringing hope and healing to others. In his honor, our family established the Jacob E. Rhoades Foundation www.jerfoundation.org to support young entrepreneurs—reflecting the same drive and ambition Jacob carried in his own life.
We find comfort in our faith, trusting that Jacob is at peace and that his light continues to shine through the lives he has touched. His life, though far too short, was filled with purpose, love, and a lasting impact that will never be forgotten.
