In August of 2023, our family experienced an unimaginable loss when our son, Jacob Rhoades, passed away.

Jacob was a young man with big dreams and the determination to make them a reality. He worked tirelessly toward his goals, pouring his heart into everything he did. In the few short years since high school, he had already begun building a life he was proud of—driven by a strong entrepreneurial spirit and a vision for his future that was just starting to come into focus.

He lived life fully and intentionally. Jacob was a hard worker, a loyal friend, and someone you could always count on. Whether it was offering a helping hand or simply being there when someone needed him, he showed up with kindness and generosity.

Though his time with us was far too short, the impact he made will last forever. We remember his ambition, his warmth, his sense of purpose, and the love he gave so freely.

Jacob, you are deeply missed and forever loved. Your dreams, your spirit, and your light continue to live on in all of us.
