Support Tripp and Julien in Jake's Memory

It is with a broken heart that we announce the passing of Jacob "Jake" "Diggity" Thomas Sheehan, 28 of North Augusta, SC on June 29, 2025.

Jake is survived by his mom, Jenn Adleman, his younger sister, Katie Shafer, his maternal grandparents, Donna "Grammy" and Ron "Papa" Adleman, and his cherished cats, Tripping Hazard and Julien; as well as his chosen family... Kara, Ethan, Alex, Walker, Christian, Ashley, Chef Mike, PJ & Sophia, Aleah & Blake, Courtney & Tyler, Benson and Kadeem.

"Culinary artist," "Boujee AF," "LEGENDARY," "Is it white people spicy, or *actually* spicy?" "If not for his empathy and compassion, I'd be in much worse shape these days," "an amazing person to work beside!" "Jake showed up in a dream last night, said hi and gave me a big hug." "Dearly loved and will be deeply missed," "We shared a love for food as well as some dark humor," "A neighbor for a moment, a friend for a lifetime....brave heart, brilliant mind, and a calm during the storm. I'll keep an eye on the blackberries... promise." "OBSTINATE in his own way. BOUGIE when it came to things that he loved. RESILIENT til his last breath." "Jake was the easiest friend I ever made, and was the simplest friend to keep. You merely opened the door for friendship and then BAM!... friend for life. He cared so much." "Jake was a loving grandson, and loyal to his core." "I don't have the words to describe the impact his friendship had on me. I loved him. I miss him so goddamn much."

There will be no services, as his life was celebrated by those who loved him in the weeks preceding his death, and all proceeds from this fundraiser will be going to Tripp and Julien's new guardians and for care in Jake's absence. His memory will forever live on in our hearts - a testament to his profound impact on those blessed to know him.
