Mitchell Glenn Jacobs

In loving memory of Mitchell Glenn Jacobs, whose life journey began on October 31, 1969, in Columbus, Ohio. Born to John Jacobs and Betty Jo Washington, Mitchell embraced life with a generous spirit and a remarkable talent for working with his hands. He learned his craft through experience, becoming skilled in various trades, and was known for his exceptional ability to help others, whether family, friends, or community members in need.

He also lent his talents to his mother-in-law, contributing to many catering events with unwavering support and professionalism. As a devoted father to his son, DeQuan, and his daughter, he took an active role in his children’s lives, especially on the football field, where he proudly participated as a hands-on dad. His love extended to his three grandsons, who fondly knew him as "Papa."
