It is with much sadness that we announce the death of Jacob Paul Weisgarber, of Canton. Born in Canton, on November 17th, 1988, weighing only 2lbs and 6oz, Jake beat all odds and overcame every life threatening obstacle he faced. A tiny little baby boy became our miracle and despite his size, he was larger than life. Life happens so fast and before we knew it, he had grown into a man. Despite all that life threw at him, he always took the time to make everyone he came into contact with laugh and feel cared about. Jake was preceded in death by his step-father, George Parrish and grandfather, James Umbaugh. Survived by his mother, Justine Parrish; father, Paul Weisgarber; sister, Nichole Weisgarber; grandmother, Judy Umbaugh; 3 daughters Breanna, Jak'yah, Kyrhianna; son, Carter; special love of his life, Brittney Taylor; as well as other loving family members and friends. Services will be held at a later date.
