Hello, my name is Kailey. I have started this GoFundMe page to help with the upcoming expenses for Jakob McDonald and his family. Our goal is to aid in the cost of a Funeral service and downtime to heal during their time of grief.

 

Jakob's father passed unexpectedly over Easter weekend. His dad lived his entire life in the service of others; his sacrifices for his family were innumerable. He could see a vision and make it a reality, an idea made tangible. He will always be their biggest fans, spurring them to new adventures, even in death. He built them to endure anything, to live and love without fear. But mostly to love.

 

Jakob attributes his father for becoming the man he is today. He worked alongside his father most of his life and taught him almost everything he knows. Most importantly, to never settle for less and that the measure of a man is in proportion to the effort he puts in.

 

For those of you with ethical or other considerations with GoFundMe, Jakob also has Zelle. Those donations will go directly to him. It is accessed through his name and phone number. If you’re interested in this avenue, please reach out to me. Thank you for being so gracious as their family navigates new waters and charters a course for the unknown. We truly appreciate your willingness to give. We know times are tough for many. Thank you for all the prayers, condolences, and assistance.
