He loved helping others and was always eager to lend a hand. He spent his final six years with his daughter, Lonna, in Phoenix where he was able to experience the Arizona desert and mountains, and to spend time with his granddaughter, Darla, and her family.
Jake is survived by his daughter, Lonna Schwab, and her daughter, Darla (Kelin) Whipple; a son, David (Susan) Schwab and his sons, David (Patty) Schwab Jr., Dana (Kelly) Schwab, and Melissa Schwab; five great-grandchildren; and a sister, Katie (Ransom) Randall.
