So back when Jake was pretty young, I'm guessing six seven or eight something like that. He found Jacobsville on a map. It's way way way up in the UP and he always wanted to go there. I think he thought he would be the King of Jacobsville. He got to travel a lot with his moving job, he has seen far more of the country than I ever have but I don't think he ever made it to Jacobsville.
Labor Day weekend 2020 I took the drive to go up there. Turns out jacobsville is no longer a town and there are only two houses left but the Lighthouse is still there.
It was decommissioned about 50 years ago and purchased recently buy an elderly couple who turned it into a B&B. I talked to the gentleman inside the building and he allow me to take pictures. I also told him Jake's story and he told me he just lost his wife a year ago.
I walked around the property and took pictures my favorite one is where I am touching the lighthouse because I have a bracelet on with Jake's ashes in it, and also his ashes are in my tattoo. So to me it's kind of like Jake is getting to touch the lighthouse.
So glad I was able to do this for you son. I know you were with me and I will continue to represent you and honor you on this planet can I see you again in person. Love you very much, Dad
PS you would have made an amazing King
