Obituary Notice
On Monday, August 10, 2026, Jacob “Robert” Jaramillo, a Christian, loving husband, and beloved friend to many, went home to be with his Lord at the age of 66.
Jake was born on July 21, 1960, in Barstow, California, to Noemi and Juan Christobal Jaramillo. He was raised in Barstow, where he spent his early years. After finding the love of his life, Vicki Hill, the two were married on July 28, 1990. They lived in Barstow until 1994, when they moved to Sturgis, Michigan, where they became a loved and cherished part of many lives.
Jake was a devoted husband, generous friend, and someone who could always bring laughter into a room. Those who knew him best would describe him as funny, kind, and, in the best possible way, a little quirky. Jake loved Jesus, his family, and his beloved Los Angeles Lakers.
Jake never needed a title or a family connection to make someone feel like family. He simply loved people, welcomed them into his life, and made them feel valued. In return, he was deeply loved by the many people whose lives he touched.
Jake leaves behind his loving wife, Vicki Jaramillo; siblings, Danny (Jeanette) Jaramillo, Edwina Jaramillo, Dorothea (Adrian) Flores, and Irma (Dave) McNeil; and several nieces and nephews. He also leaves behind the many people he lovingly “adopted” into his family over the years—those who may not have been family by blood but became family by love, including those who proudly called him Uncle Jake and Grandpa Jake. His heart had a way of making people feel like they belonged, and he cherished each of these relationships dearly. He was preceded in death by his mother and father.
Jake will be deeply missed, but his laughter, generosity, quirky personality, and love will continue to live on in the hearts and lives of all who knew him.
You beat us There, Jake, but we’ll see you again. This isn’t goodbye—it’s simply, “See you later.”
