Dear Jake, it has been 2 weeks since we said goodbye to you. Even with your funeral service, I still can’t believe you are gone. I hold the phone close waiting for you to call just to say “hey  mom!”  I miss you so much and feel so heartbroken.  I look back through pictures and see that handsome face and I hear your laughter through your beautiful smile! I think about all the kindness that you displayed to others and the big heart you had no matter. You touched so many lives and you never met a stranger.
You are missed by so many especially us, your parents, your brothers, and Johanna.  Living life without you will be so difficult, but the one thing that comforts me is that you are at peace and surrounded by the love of our Heavenly Father and your father along with others who went before you.  You are one of my greatest blessings and love!
I hope through your story we can help others who suffer from addiction. I have had overwhelming love and support from our friends, family and even strangers as I grieve for you.
I love you so much and until we meet again know you will be in my heart forever.
 Love always and forever,
Mom

Of all the many blessings, no matter how great or small, to have had you Jacob, our nephew was one of the greatest of all.  We remember you Jake with that sweet smile, your great laugh and your beautiful eyes, not to mention how TALL you were! You were kind,  gentle, and caring. We loved you from the day you were born, and watched you grow with your 4 brothers into  your teen and young adult years with so much life and worldly promise. You have left us far to soon, yet we know your demon is gone, you are now set free, and you rest in peace in the arms of our Lord and Savior.  With God holding you close, HE places 3 angels to surround you and watch over you now... your Dad, Grandma Kay and Grandpa Paul...You are in good hands. 
Rest In Peace Jake

My sweet brother, I hope you know how much you’ll be missed and the lives you’ve touched while you were here. A piece of me was taken the day you passed away.  You’re one of the most amazing and loving people I’ve ever known. Thank you for the unbreakable bond we shared and all the childhood memories and love we shared together. I’ll hold them close to my heart for as long as I live. No words to express the pain and sorrow I feel.  I love you Jake. I promise to keep your memory alive. Until we meet again..your loving brother,

David 

Dear family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. My children lost their father in April.   Thank you for being so transparent in sharing the life of Jake. So many of us experience this pain that we would not wish on anyone but  we are giving the task of carrying it. Addiction steals a very peace of our heart but it can never steal the wonderful memories. 

Dearest Tom & Barb,
We cannot begin to think that words can begin to ease the pain & sorrow you are going through...just know that there is love & support out there for all of you as a family....may Jacob “Jake” now Rest In Peace at the foot of his earthly father and in the arms of his Heavenly Father at this time for reasons we will never understand .  Just know that the pain & sorrow is shared by all of those who love you...with all of our heartfelt love...Pam, Tim & families

I am so sorry for you all.  It is all heart breaking.  I pray he is at peace and you all will find some ucomfort.  Thank you for being real about addiction.  Maybe it will help someone else.  Peace

Jake
Happy birthday!
Thank you for loving Jo and know that you were loved and will always be in out hearts.
Rest well....

Jacob,

You were an amazing person and friend.  It was pleasure to complete all of those grade school years and the many memories I have of you.  I can think of all of the field trips especially in middle school and chorus competitions.  You will be missed but your memory will forever live on.  I extend my prayers and condolences to your family on today and the many days to come.

Sorrowfully Submitted,

MS Disharoon, 
I did not know your son but I understand your pain.  I lost my daughter in June of 2017.  I found her dead of a herion overdose and it is the worst pain our family has ever had.  My prayers are with you and your family.  I still see part of our Daughter every day  because when she passed away she had a 6 month old baby and he is 3 now and he acts like her and looks so much like her.  BUT, I believe God's plan was for me and my husband to raise him.  He is the light of our life.  

Jacob, Jacob, Jacob. If I shared every story and memory I would monopolize the space on this site so I will just say that your humor, your smile, and you extremely large heart will be forever stored in the recesses of my mind. You still hold a special place in my heart and the one thing I wish I did better was keep in touch. I'm glad to know that despite the challenges that came your way, you remained loving at your core. Miss you Jakey, but will see you on the other side. God's Peace and Blessings to the Bowling/Disharoon family.

Something I will never forget about Jake was his smile. He always had a way to brighten up the day. I remember his shenanigans trying to get us to believe the Pocomoke forest was haunted. No words can bring comfort. I pray that his family will be comforted through this time and those good memories will shine through. 

I have known Jake since school he was a year above me.  However, we became really close friends in 2006.  I always cheered him on in his recovery and gave positive emcouragement when needed.  Jake had a heart of gold and was such a good person.  I always spoke to him and ran into him over the years and our friendship remained. I had the pleasure of seeing him a month before his passing in Ocean City on the boardwalk.   I know I will never forget him and always will remember him for the happiness he spread.  My deepest condolences goes out to all his loved ones.

Dear Barbara,  I remember quite well the day you enrolled your special family  in Somerset Co.  school system and I immediately fell in love with all the boys.  David captured my heart being the oldest and having a smile that just brought  joy.  Jacob was younger but I remember the handsome, good looks that characterized your  whole family.  My heart aches for you since a mother's loss is undoubtedly  something from which you never recover, but then, I know that your faith will somehow bring you through.  My prayers go out to your whole family!

David

I can’t say how sorry I am you’re all feeling this way right now and each day.  I liked him so much!! I can’t express how much, but I think his mom knew!! He was so nice and always so sweet to me.  Always a hug waiting when I seen him.  I loved seeing his art work, as he was so talented.  He will be missed that is for sure.   Wishing won’t  change anything , as I know this firsthand, but I do for sure !!  Sending my love and prayers for all always !!!  
  Nadine
