The unexpected death of a child is an unimaginable loss that no one could be prepared for.  Sadly on June 2, 2020,  Melanie and Matt's lives were changed forever when their 5 year old son was taken from them in a tragic accident.  No parent should ever have to experience this type of monumental trauma and they are devastated for the loss of their beloved son.  We are friends of the family who want to help support them while they grieve.  The money raised here will be shared with them directly and used to help them take time off from work, help with costs of the funeral and allow them to make decisons for their future. 

Jacob was  a funny, energetic, happy, empathetic, loving, caring little boy who will be missed beyond belief.  Jacob was looking forward to enjoying his summer swimming, going to camp, seeing his friends, playing sports and entering Kindergarten in the fall.  He was full of life and you could always find Jacob dancing to music, riding his bike, playing sports and cuddling with his family. 
No family should have to think about expenses at a time like this. We want to alleviate the financial burden and allow the family time to mourn. If you can find it in your heart to help to these loving parents, please contribute below.  Any contribution would be greatly appreciated. This little act of kindness will go a long way.  We pray this family finds peace knowing that Jacob touched so many lives and will always be remembered.

At this time, the family is continuing to grieve privately and asks that you allow them time alone before reaching out directly.  Thank you for understanding.
