It has obviously taken quite a while to write this. Finding the right words, or even just coming to terms with this has been quite overwhelming. Jake was a part of our family for quite a few years, and for about three of those years he basically lived with us. We shared family events, Christmases, birthdays, and the list goes on. As others have stated in their memories, Jake was always there to lend a helping hand any time we may have needed it. Life takes us in many different directions - we have always been believers in what is 'meant to be' - where we all end up is all part of the plan for us from the moment we enter this earth.
I personally hate motorcycles - and I had told Jake that more than once. But, as my husband once said - it was not a matter of 'if' Jake would get a bike, it was a matter of 'when' Jake would get a bike. I know its something he always wanted, and we are still trying hard to come to terms with the fact that he left this earth doing something that he loved - a 'meant to be' moment - a moment of freedom and joy for him.
Jake will never be forgotten by all those he touched in his short lifetime. He will live on in our memories; his beautiful smile never forgotten. Until we meet again Jake - We hope you’ve hit those gold streets on two wheels - Give Heaven some Hell!

Jake is my brother David’s best friend of almost 20 years. We grew up with Jake and I affectionately always called him my “other little brother.” Jake was an important member of our family. We have so many great memories with Jake which we’ve had the pleasure of recounting over the last 2 weeks. He will be greatly missed and remembered fondly.
Jake had many amazing qualities and an infectious smile. When I think of Jake I think of his thoughtfulness and generosity. I’ll never forget the day he left a thank you note and homesense gift card in our mailbox for my mom to thank her for the many years she looked out for him and drove him and David to the local skate parks and ski hills. That small action really touched my mom and our whole family.
A few months ago, Jake framed our basement for us. I’m grateful for the many evenings and weekends Jake spent at our home and for the time we got to spend with him one on one. Of course, despite our many efforts he wouldn’t accept a dime for his time and would barely even accept beer and pizza. That was just the kind of guy he was, he was always so generous, grateful and kind. He never expected or accepted anything in return.
We are eternally grateful for what a great friend Jake was to David and to our entire family. We will miss you Jakey.

I’ve been blessed to make several memories over the past two years with our beloved Jacob. My favourite though is when he helped us build our cottage bunkie. It was his 24th birthday weekend and Jaime was bringing him up to celebrate but also to put him to work. He asked what tools he could bring and was mystified when we said “just a rubber mallet, if you have one”. Jake could not wrap his head around the mallet thing until he realized that I had purchased a pre-made kit that required very few tools to assemble. Jake was so impressed by the way the bunkie assembled that he basically took over. When it came to putting the roof on and shingling, it was all up to Jake. No one else could do the height, but he just swung around like a monkey up there with no fear at all. I know he was super proud of that structure and his part in building it. We will now name it Jake’s Place in his memory. He and Jaime made it their own and had many a fun weekend watching sunsets, building fires and waking up to the beauty of Lake Huron. I’m so happy that we had time at our happy place with Jake. Miss you son. Love from Rhonda

I remember the first time I met Jake. It felt like we had known each other for years. It was a friendship that was truly meant to be, and I will forever be grateful for the time we did spend together.
Carson and I went over to his place and Cars introduced me by my first name, Karsyn. Jake immediately thought we were fucking with him and replied “fuckkkk offffff, show me your ID, what’s your real name?”. To which I showed my ID and reassured him that we really do have the same name, just spelt differently. That must have been too confusing for Jake because from day one he refused to call me by my first name. He said he had to think of a good name for me.
For those that don’t know, my last name is Fink, and somewhere along the way while he was brainstorming a new name for me, Finkster was born, and it stuck! From then on out anytime I walked into a room , garage , backyard, or bar where he was, I could hear him yelling “Finkkkkkksssstteeeeerrrrrrrrr, get over here”, and he would have the biggest smile on his face.
Coming into a new friend group I was nervous, but Jake welcomed me with open arms, always made sure I was taken care of, comfortable and that I knew I was loved. Jake gave the best hugs! He always pulled me in tight and held on for what sometimes felt like minutes. I miss him so much, and my heart aches for everyone who knew and loved him.
Love you forever Jake, thank you for coming into my life even if it was only for a short time.
Love Finkster
