Jacob was a 2003 graduate of Clark County R-1 High School and received his Bachelor’s Degree in PE from Culver Stockton College. He played football in high school and represented Clark Co. R-1 in the East Game and in the Lion’s Club All-Star Game. He was a member of the Wildcats at Culver Stockton College for several years and following several concussions, coached the last two years.

He was also a talented and gifted artist.

Jacob was a former manager of Blimpies in Kahoka and the Sonic Restaurant in Keokuk. He suffered from health issues related to his concussions which were becoming more apparent.
