What Happened:

Thanksgiving was met with unexpected tragedy as Jake Hilligoss passed away around 12pm. Jake got up in the morning excited for his 4 day extended Holiday Weekend.

 

He ate breakfast and immediately went to play video games with his brother Logan. After about an hour, while playing video games, Jake suddenly collapsed and stopped breathing. Immediately his parents started CPR and called the ambulance. The paramedics took him to Glen Oaks Hospital Emergency Room, but were not able to resuscitate him.

 

It was confirmed as an unexpected heart arrhythmia. We miss him dearly.  He was a very healthy and vibrant growing young man. In the last year he grew at least 3 inches to 5’9 and was growing from a boy into a young man.
