Uncle Jake was the heart of a great and expansive family, if not the head. He rocked many, many, many babies to sleep on his chest while sitting in his creaky wooden rocker in the corner of the living room. So many of us remember him as a light in our memories of the holidays and family gatherings, but I was one of five kids who got to spend day after day and year after year in his world. I thank God for this blessing.
We love him still.
