He was most known for his infectious smile, positive attitude and complete trust and faith in God’s plan. This scholarship is awarded In Jakob’s Memory to a junior at Elyria Catholic High School who exhibits similar qualities.The scholarship will be applied to Cara Finnegan’s senior year tuition at Elyria Catholic.
