I thought about you today. 😔 you were so kind and full of jokes lol.  Rest in paradise.

I looked forward to every morning when I walked into homeroom and sat next to Jacob. He was the most kind hearted person I have ever had the privilege to call my friend.

When I transferred into Havre de Grace as a freshman, he was so kind and accepting. He was always in my classes and was always somebody to sit with at lunch. I will always remember his humor and kindness. 

I had the pleasure of serving with and leading SPC Kirby as his 1SG.  While he had his struggles with his physical abilities, he was one of the most motivated and disciplined troops I've ever known.   He showed great resiliency by overcoming his physical struggles, and I would gladly take an entire company filled with troops like him.   Kirby, you will be missed.   

I remember every morning we would hang out in the front of the high in the lobby just chilling and waiting for our friends to come so we can go right to the library and to hang out there as well. We would laugh and have fun. You, me, Rusty,  Alex, Coale, Nathan, Duncan and others would always chill in the library together like a family. I will miss you Kirby. You was one hell of a brother. We might not be brother by blood but by loyalty and friendship. I love you brother. I can't believe you are gone. You will always be my brother. 

I remember when he was younger  running around the havredegrace legion.  He was taken away from us far too soon.  He will be missed 

Remember you as a little boy running around  American Legion Post 47 as a little boy.  You will be missed.

Jacob had a kind and generous heart. I am proud to have worked by his side and been his friend. Our visit to the Texas History Museum in Austin was a great day I will always remember. 

Jacob, My heart shattered when I heard the news. You were my very first friend in middle school and after highschool, you had told me that no matter what that you would never leave me...even when you went to the army, I knew you were still with me, I could still text you and call when I needed you but now im just so lost without you...Rest In Peace Jacob, I love you so much bro.

I have had so many amazing memories with Kirby. He was my best friend growing up. Rest easy brother. I love you.
