In Memoriam: Susan Jacobs

    Susan Jacobs died Wednesday, June 25, 2014, after a courageous battle with ALS. Susan remained a deeply spiritual woman throughout this journey and her faith served her well. Her testimony was also a Christian witness to everyone around her. Susan was an Earthly picture of the woman described in I Peter 3:4- "a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God." Susan was born August 17, 1950, in Baton Rouge, LA. 
    She is survived by her husband of 45 years, Rusty Jacobs, her three sons and their families; Wes and Carlie Jacobs and their children Reagen, Sydney, and Wes Jr.; Jason and Amy Jacobs and their children Levi, Aubin Rose, and Josiah; and Gabe and Kristen Jacobs and their son, Samuel and her mother, Maisie Raymond. 
    She was preceded in death by her daughter, Amy Lynn Jacobs and her father, Leonard Soileau. Visitation was held at Comite Baptist Church on Thursday, June 26, 2014, from 5 pm to 8 pm and continued on Friday, June 27, 2014, at Comite Baptist Church from 10 am until service time at 11 am conducted by Rev. John Green and Rev. Bill Parsons. Susan's nephews, Todd, Kevin, and Darren Browning; Chuck, Craig, and Chris Pourciau served as her pallbearers. The family is grateful for the support and services of St. Joseph Hospice and the Louisiana/Mississippi Chapter of the ALS Association.
