Jakob was born in Durant, OK on February 2, 1996 to parents Rhonda Potter and Jerry Watson. Jakob was a member of the 2014 graduating class of Bokoshe High School in Bokoshe, OK. He was a country boy, and self-proclaimed redneck, and enjoyed spending time outdoors, hunting, fishing, and hiking. When he wasn’t outside, you would find him playing PS4 with his siblings. They especially enjoyed Borderlands and Far Cry. He also found enjoyment in TV shows and movies such as Supernatural, Star Wars, and Harry Potter. He was a hard worker, proud of his job, and all around content with his life.
Jakob is preceded in death by brother, Tristan Steele; grandfather, Ruben Potter; grandmother, Amaryllis Benge; and grandfather, Russell Watson.
He leaves behind his parents; sisters, Royal Wilcox, Jennifer (Randall) Patten, and Heather Steele; brother, Quinton Adams; grandmother, Diane Potter; Nieces, Vera Wilcox, Hannah and Avery Patten, and Brielle Charles; and nephew, Liam Patten; as well as a multitude of extended family and friends to cherish his memory.
There was nothing more important to Jakob than his siblings and family and he will be greatly missed.
