My heart goes out to you Brian and family. He was always so nice to me and loved his family so much. May he rest in peace.

I remember your dad coming to the Delt house and trying to help us become something more, he was teaching us about a much needed paradigm shift. I remember thinking of him as wise and kind. I’m praying for all of you, and I’m available if you ever want to talk, pray, or just vent! 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
In Loving Memory of Brian Peter Jakes, Sr. 🕊️
Today, I am reflecting on the profound legacy of a remarkable leader and mentor. Brian wasn’t just an accomplished executive; he was someone who looked past the resume to see potential, spark, and greatness in others.
I will always be deeply grateful that he took a chance on me early in my career. His steady guidance, belief in my abilities, and unwavering integrity changed the trajectory of my life. It is the honor of a lifetime to have been a part of his journey.
Rest in peace, Mr. Jakes. Your leadership lives on in everyone you inspired.
