Today marked the funeral of a great man, Jake Wanner.
He was a kind and gentle man who cared about people. He liked to have a good time and share his stories.
I will never forget how he took the time to record a news clip about a very nice school (because he knew I was a teacher) and said, "Hey Paige, how would you like to teach there?" and then we had a great discussion about teaching and education. Jake was a thoughtful man.
I love how he took the time with my boys. Each summer we would visit the river he would make sure they were having a great time on his property.
Thank Jake for modeling kindness, compassion and thoughtfulness towards others.
You will be missed, but not forgotten.
