It is with much regret and sadness that we announce the passing of Thomas Kevin Jacob. Thom departed this life on June 30, 2024, with family by his side. You are now at peace Thom and no longer in any discomfort.
Born on December 10, 1953, he was the first born son of Herbert C. Jacob and Rachel C. Jacob (Testa), who predeceased him.
Thom was a graduate of Fairleigh Dickinson University and a long time employee of Eastern airlines and later, American airlines. He retired in 2021, but missed his work and coworker relationships very much.
All who knew him will remember his unique personality.
He leaves behind his cherished brother Bobby and husband Murphy, cherished brother Eric and wife Melanie, niece Kelly and husband Trevor, grand nice Zoey Rae, nephew Christopher and cousins Joseph and Lucille Testa. We will miss our big brother enormously.
Thom’s wonderful best friends Phillip Wolbrecht and Richard Smith were a constant presence in his life, always there for him, especially in his final time of need. Their love, devotion and compassion was a comforting thing to witness and we will all be forever be grateful to them for their help and concern for Thom.
A graveside service for Thom will be held Friday, July 5, 2024 at 11:00 AM at Arlington Memorial Park, 201 Mount Vernon Hwy, Sandy Springs, GA 30328.
A celebration of Thom’s life will be planned for a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Thom’s name can be made to these charities - IFAW, Sierra Club, American Cancer Society, or one of your own choosing.
Thom……always on our minds and forever in our hearts. We love you, Always.
