Jacob Gage Cloutier's Obituary
Jacob Gage Cloutier
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Jacob Gage Cloutier on August 14 2023, at the age of 37. Jacob was a beacon of joy, kindness, and shared passions. His death created a void that will be deeply felt by all who knew him.
Born on July 28 1986, Jacob was a cherished son, father, husband, and friend, who infused the lives of those around him with his vibrant spirit. He had an insatiable curiosity and a thirst for exploration. He spent his time going on spontaneous road-trips, learning new technology, reading fantasy novels, and playing video games; he loved novelty and sharing that experience with those he loved.
Jacob found immense delight in his hobbies, with his favorite being Dungeons and Dragons. It is a game he loved that brought out his creativity and camaraderie. His face would light up as he led friends on epic quests through imaginary worlds.
Jacob was not only a technophile but also a true computer whiz. His fascination with computers was matched only by his ability to make them do his bidding. Whether it was helping someone with a technical glitch or building a custom rig, he did so with unbridled passion.
In the realm of online streaming, Jacob was a star. His infectious enthusiasm drew people together as he shared his gaming adventures, insights, and laughter. He had a knack for building an online community where everyone felt welcome, a testament to his warm and inclusive nature.
Beyond his hobbies, Jacob possessed a generous spirit. He believed in the power of giving and made sure his actions echoed his convictions.
Jacob leaves behind a legacy of love and camaraderie, surviving in the hearts of his family Robert and Ann Riekowski (parents), Alisa Cloutier (wife), Ian, Daniel, and George (sons). Though he may have left this world, the memories of his laughter, his shared quests, and his online charisma will forever remain etched in our souls.
As we bid farewell, let's remember Jacob's zest for life and the way he brought people together. May he find peace wherever his adventures take him next, and may his legacy inspire us to live life with the same zeal and warmth that he did. Until we meet again, we love you.
Jacobs' ashes will be laid to rest at the Orem Cemetery. A celebration of life will be held in July 2024 around his birthday.
