Jerry Dean Jacob - Guestbook

I am so sorry to hear that Jerry has passed. I got to know him while working at the County and I just loved getting to visit with him...one of the SWEETEST men I've ever known. My condolences to the family and all that cherished him.

Praying for all of your sweet family. May your memories bring you joy and your faith give you comfort and peace.

My condolences to the family of Jerry,

Got acquainted with him and his family when visiting Carmine years ago.

We extend our sympathy to the family.
Out thoughts and prayers are with you,

We are so saddened by the news of our long-time friend since Ron & I was a part of Carmine & in the RCT! He supported everything, especially every game we had in that Gym! We always could count on Jerry & Barbara cheering the team on! We know y’all’s, your husband will be missed! BUT we know he leaves you all many cherished memories! Payers for you all!

We are truly sorry for your loss. All of you are in our prayers.

Our sympathies for your loss.

To the Jerry Jacob Family, our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. JERRY WAS TRULY ONE-OF A KIND! Barbara, we are deeply saddened by the passing of your beloved husband; a wonderful loving father, grand-father & great-grandfather. We were always so happy to see your and Jerry's smiles & greetings coupled with easy conversation along the Canyon Lake Island street we all shared and love so much. May this be a celebration of a tremendous life lived to its fullest! Thank you also for being a true friend and caring neighbor to my departed mother Shirley. With deepest sympathy, your friends and neighbors, the Paul and Arlene Hillegeist Family.

Rest in peace Jerry. Thanks for allowing me to be part of the team and all the fun.

See you in heaven my friend.

To Barbara, Sheila, Lane and family my deepest sympathy.

Caring for Mr. Jacob “Paw” was an experience I will always hold close. He was a man who knew what he wanted—strong-willed, direct, and full of presence. In those months together, I came to respect his spirit and the standards he set for himself and others. It was a privilege to serve him and to witness the love and dedication he showed his wife Barbara each day. Please accept my sincere condolences. May the memories we all shared with Mr. Jacob bring comfort in the days ahead. May you rest assured in God’s love and may you find peace that surpasses all understanding.

We are so sorry for the loss of our dear Friend. We will always cherish all the memories, fun and laughter of the amazing times with Jerry. His contagious smile, silliness and zest for life will remain in our hearts forever. Praying for the entire family that you find comfort and peace he is now in the arms of our Lord Jesus Christ.

My heart goes out to the Jacob family during this difficult time. May you find comfort in the love that surrounds you and peace in the memories you hold close with Jerry Dean.

Pops was a blessing to all who knew him!! He is sorely missed! Prayers to all who love him!

How hearts are sad along the Jacob family. Find comfort in knowing he is in heaven and free from all cares with Jesus

My family and I are deeply saddened hearing of the passing of a beloved neighbor and gentleman. We were proud to have Jerry and Barbara as a resident of our growing Canyon Lake Island TX Subdivision. He and Barbara graced our neighborhood with their friendliness, company and great humor. In 2005 they volunteered their time and expense deep-frying enough chicken from their farm chicken inventory to feed 56 people attending our first really-big neighborhood gathering along the Canyon Lake shoreline. It was attended at that time by Comal County Sheriff, Bob Holder. Later, Barbara and Jerry opened their hearts and contributed generously to the Subdivision's future to make worthwhile commitments which are now reaping fruit today for every resident on Canyon Lake Island to enjoy. Early-on, in 2006, besides surprising us, Jerry would drop off a dozen of the famous Jacob egg inventory to my family. Jerry gave me one of his famous white-brimmed and blue-topped "Jake's Eggs" Otto Cap-branded baseball caps which I've since always wore while walking. I also wore it while mowing around my cactus patch and while attending to other lawn-manicuring details. The last time I saw Jerry in his backyard porch, sitting next to Barbara, he was stymied to see the headgear was worn to a complete frazzle. He said he would get me another hat to replace it. And he came through when (I believe it was) Lane who brought me a new one just a few months ago. It is now a treasure to remind me of such a great man who has left our presence here on earth who will always be looked up to, in heaven, as I wear the new and improved cap. My family mourns such a warm man, so we, too, join with all Jerry and Barbara's friends and relatives in mourning his loss. He will be greatly missed.
With love from our family: Charlie, Pat, Melissa, Shane and little JC.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Jacob. What a long and accomplished life with many loving family and friends to share with. Cherish all these wonderful memories to honor and remember him and help you through difficult days ahead. Sharing our thoughts, prayers and sympathy.
Christy Fuchs Moran and family

To Mr. Jerry Jacob aka my Pop, Awh man where do I start. My spoiled old man, I just want to say thank you. Thank you for letting me be apart of your life, letting me into your home to take care of you. I gained a knowledge, confidence in myself, wisdom but most of all I gained a friend. You don’t know how I felt when you held my hand and squeezed it tight and told me you loved me and I was your good buddy. That really meant a lot it let me know and understand that I was more than a friend but family. “It ain’t bragging if it’s the truth” … We love you and will miss you Mr. Jerry Jacob until we meet again sleep well get your rest. -Jey

Sorry to hear about Jerry Dean’s passing. May our Lord comfort yall in this time of sorrow! Prayers to all the Jacob family!

I know this is difficult time and will keep family in my prayers as they process their grief but celebrate the wonderful life he had. My other family growing up in Houston was his brother's family who brought the "Jake Eggs" to Houston. Dinah and I grew up like "sisters" and I remember our time visiting in Carmine with her cousins and other relatives. My parents are already in Heaven, but know they will be welcoming him with the Peace they have with our Lord.
