When Jacob left us, he took a piece of our hearts with him. I am so thankful to you for sharing him with me in class. It truly was a gift, and I will always think of his sweet, gentle smile and how it widened with pride at his accomplishments. He was taken much too soon but I pray that the beautiful memories of him bring you some peace. His too short life was a life full of love. He will be dearly missed and my heart goes out to all of you.

My deepest sympathy,

Miss Kim
