We are extremely sorry to hear of Jake's passing. We had the opportunity to do business with Jake which turned into a friendship over the years. Jake was always honest and willing to take care of our needs, you could always count on him when you needed him. His true desire to be generous and help those around him was evident in his business ethics and the way he lived his life. We will miss you Jake,
Your Friends at Hooper City.
I too must also thank jake for a good start in my career what a great man always willing and wanting to help everyone around him and his sense of humor I enjoyed most maybe off color but the single biggest thing that made Jake himself to many memories to share but I will share my first when I met Jake for my interview behind Glenn Kirk's house I met Andy said I'm lookn for Jake for an interview he said just look for the "skinny guy" u will know when he walks in Jake walked in a few mins later and was told the story and just laughed and said "yeah " with a Jake smirk. My condolences to Molly and family
Such a good guy! Worked for Kirk Mobile Repair as an accountant. He always treated his employees like Family and made you feel valued. He will be missed. My prayers go out for the Kirk Family and loved ones
I remember working with Jake when we were together at Deseret Industries of Ogden. We were given the rare opportunity to work together for about a week. At the end of the week he said it was a pleasure to work with someone who didn't complain about how hard the work was, and how much had to be done. It was as if we each knew just what the other was going to do and what the next move was going to be. In today's world it's hard to find one who is willing to put in a days work or work til the job is done. He called it the old school of how to work and help each other. Molly has been known to say of Jake "You are the youngest old time worker I know"! I loved him for his honesty and his work ethic. It's hard to find a real good friend out there these days. Jake is one of those kind of people. I'm grateful to have known Jake all these years and am happy to call him my friend. I'm going to miss you my friend. You have left this world a better place for having been in it. Till we meet again, Rest in Peace. Thair D. Keyes
PS: to those of his family left here in this life.... May the Lord bless you at this time of your loss. May his holy hand hold you till you feel his love and peace to fill the void Jake left. You are loved by Jake. I know this to be true because he and I spoke of it often when we were together.
Jake what a sad time. You were such a great friend. Enjoyed visits, meals, camping and talks about children and grandkids.You will be missed. May your sweet Molly feel at peace along with your dear children. Love you always. Pam and Jeff Macfarlane.
Jake kick started my adult life by inspiring the epiphany that as of yet I “didn’t know shit”, received in a strangely positive and supportive way. For the next decade plus, Jake would become one of the most influential, supportive, and coaching people in my life. He saved me from a couple disasters and smoothed out some of life’s blows. Thanks Big Man!
