Life story

Jacob was the second son born to Keith and Sonya Yon. His older brother is Joshua and younger sister is Rachel. Jacob was always shy. He was smart and always did well in school with very little effort. He was always smaller than the other kids his age until he was in high school and hit a growth spurt. He enjoyed participating in the FFA and always seemed to enjoy the competitions and camp over the years. He later began college and wanted to pursue Engineering.

Jacob was easy to get along with, smart, hard working and determined. He was exceptional and clearly would have gone far in life.

There are so many things that could be spoken about Jacob, all being good. He was and is very special! He is forever in our hearts and always on our mind. He will be missed until our family is reunited.❤️
