Memorial Service Transcripts

Lucy Waletzky:

My dearest Jacob,

     I know that you would wish that the happiness and love that you brought us so generously in your lifetime would still echo in our hearts and bring us lasting warm memories of you....and

     I know that you would wish that we would understand the incredible strength and determination you showed in battling your illness and that we would copy it in struggling forward with our various battles....and

     I know that for you we would all want your dear spirit, if such a thing is possible, to find other departed ones to have some fun and laughs and mental challenges...and new love....and

     I know that I wish that my dear mother would already have found you and held you in her arms.

May the depth of our collective love and respect and admiration drift up from here and make you feel very proud and warm and happy and content....and

May our higher power embrace us all together with you always.

I love you Jacob....my sweet, loving, sensitive, generous, brilliant, talented, original, strong, handsome and best son.

Goodbye for now.
