Sending our sincere condolences to Christine and family. Road closures today mean we cannot be with you to farewell Jake.
He was a longtime friend and I have good memories of our sporting days, running at College and the Richmond Athletic Club. Jake was a very competitive person.
We also had chance meetings and a catch up at the coffee shop when we were out on bike rides.
