Jacob Thomas Blanchard

Jacob loved everyone he met and had a special way of turning any situation into a comedy show. Jacob’s spark was enough to light every candle in the room. He would help anyone in need and do anything for those he held dear. He loved riding motorcycles, rock climbing, hunting, and golfing with his brothers, and spending quality time with family and friends. He worked out faithfully at the Powerhouse Gym in Milford and was able to courageously control his Type I Diabetes. He was the best son and brother anyone could ever ask for. Jake will never be forgotten and will be missed beyond words. We all know he will be dancing around with his best pal Cooper.
