We are sad to announce that on May 31, 2025, at the age of 22, Jacob Dirham (Van Wert, Ohio), born in Lima, Ohio passed away. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
As Jacob departs from this earthly realm, his essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death.
