Born in Louisville, Kentucky on November 11, 1940 Nicky was the eldest son of Birthel & Drucilla (Simpson) Jacobs. He always held a joy in the little things, things like running, dancing, horse racing, boxing, riding motorcycles as well as training and breaking horses. He loved his U of L Cardinals. Nicky was a hard worker, always working 2 jobs for most of his life, where he worked in sales.
Our father was the absolute best father in the entire world. He was a good man. If anybody needed help, dad was there with no questions asked. The best grandfather and great grandfather. He loved riding his Harley alongside his son and he loved spending Thursdays together, with his daughter. His family meant more than anything in the world to him. He meant so much too so many people and he touched so many lives. Nicky lived a full life, a life well lived.
