“Forever Loved, Never Forgotten”
The Navy Gold Star Program is eternally grateful for the sacrifice of those Service Members who have died in service to our country. To help us to never forget, we have set up this tribute page to honor and remember the memory of those lives. If you would like to honor the memory of your Sailor, Soldier, Marine, Airman or Coast Guardsman through the Navy Gold Star website please submit your thoughts and a photo.
Jake was raised in Tyngsboro, MA and later moved to Plymouth, MA. Jake was excited to join the US Navy after realizing that college wasn't for him. He started his service in Groton, CT at the Naval Submarine Base where he made many friends and eventually was stationed at Pearl Harbor.
He loved video games, Pokemon, painting Warhammer figures, skiing, time with his friends and family, and his dog Evie. He had a talent for drawing and a great Christopher Walken impression. His family misses his boisterous laugh, quirky humor and sparkling green eyes. Jake was 24 at the time of his passing.
