Hi Friends,

My name is Joe Prillaman. If you have not heard my brother Jacob Prillaman passed away on May 27th 2016. Its been a little over a week since his death and I am so thankful for all the love that has been shown to my family in this hard time.

As my family is starting to transition back into "Normal Life" we have had an idea to honor my brother in the best way possible. He devoted his life to skating. He was a lot better than he led us to believe and he always complained that there was such a huge lacking of skate parks over here on the east coast.

I want to honor my brother by building an epic skate park. He was 20 years old and had a huge impact on so many lives it is the least I can do. I’m not 100% sure how this will be accomplished but I can guarantee you that it will be built.

This is an open invitation for everyone and anyone to help make this happen. Please join with me in this long healing process by helping us climb this mountain together.

I have attached a link to the eulogy my sister read at his celebration of life if you would like to read it (she is a much better writer than i'll ever be).

There is also an amazing video of him and plenty of his skating videos I will upload when I am able to get them. This is the video his friend Trace Mitchell made for his celebration of life. (Some sweet skate videos start at 13:20).

I am very new to the skating community so please share this with any and all people. Thanks to social media i'm going to try and reach out to some influential people to help make this happen.

If you would like to speak with me personally my number is [phone redacted] Please call anytime.

Till the whole world hears,

Joe Prillaman
