Mrs. Jacobs was such a beautiful lady and the matriarch of a wonderful family! I loved it that she always ate her dessert first in the dining room at Pleasant Hills! What a sweet lady she was! Condolences to all of her family.

Dear Pat and family,
You are all in our prayers. Your mom was such a blessing to all of us that got to know her. I enjoyed my time with her at church and the social events for Sunday school. She was so bright and sweet. God bless you all at this time and always.
