If you ever met Jacob, you knew right away what a kind, funny, charming guy he was. He was always willing to help and would give the shirt off his back to anyone who needed it.
Jacob had the gift of incredible intelligence. He was a wiz on the computer and could diagnose and fix a problem on almost any machine. He was talented in so many ways. One of those people who seemed to be naturally good at everything.
Jacob had a strong bond with his kids. He loved them deeply and his favorite place was spending time with them.
We are left with broken hearts and fond memories of Jacob. He will be forever missed. Jacob is survived by his daughter, Rhea Boelter, stepson, James Kelly, ex-wife, Yesenia Gardner, mother, Mimi Boelter, father, Brad Boelter, sister, Summer Britt, and brother-in-law, Ross Britt.

Jacob, the oldest, always engaged me when it would have been so easy (and normal) to disregard me, or delegate me to the girls. He radiated kindness and authenticity, and was genuinely interested in what you had to say (which surprises no one considering who his parents are), and as a kid, that meant the world! Not many people can so easily create safety. He will be missed, and Iām so glad to have some memories. š less
