“You do not understand now what I am doing but someday you will.” John 13:7 Jakes absence is felt deeply here on earth, I find comfort knowing he now he has the highest honor of being the best guardian to Zeplyn and of course Ashley. Sending prayers of peace love and strength to all those hearts breaking and whose souls are aching.

Jake, you don’t have to fight any longer. God has it all under control, please enjoy the eternal life you now have. We will all be together soon again, Ash is so strong and will know just what to do for Zep. Rest in Heaven, for gods preparing you for his fight, you are one fierce angel. Love, The Wolf Pack

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Rest In Peace

I still can’t believe I am writing this message right now... Jake and I kept talking about living in the same neighborhood and starting a new life outside of Indiana, in Florida. I asked him to be one of my groomsman in my wedding and he asked what day, I told him July 13th and he said bro, I’m getting married that day. Crazy to think we have the same wedding anniversary. You were the only friend that always wanted to stay in touch no matter what. You planned trips and you just made things happen. Ever since I met Jake back in high school, he always made it seem like people were looking down on him, well now you are definitely looking down on us from heaven brother. You grew up to be such a responsible husband, father, and friend at such a young age. We have been through some crazy experiences and I’m going to miss you beyond belief. My condolence goes out to the Martin family. My family will always welcome yours with open arms. We love you guys and are always here if you need us. The twin towers will rise again, in heaven! Love you bro.
