Jacob was born November 30, 1997 in Prairie du Chien, WI to Timothy and Jolene (Sime) Wilson. He graduated from Janesville High School in 2016. 

Jacob loved cooking and baking. He was always trying something new and started creating new recipes, even as a child. Throughout high school, Jacob enjoyed working at Old Country Buffet in the bakery. Most recently, Jacob was the General Manager of Noodles & Company near the MSU campus.

Jacob was spontaneous, fun, and caring. He loved traveling and trying new things. His laughter was contagious, and he loved to laugh at the little things. Jacob was always willing to help others and would show up whenever there was a need.  He spent a lot of time hiking and getting muddy with his dog, Mocmo, who was his pride and joy. They were a perfect match. In his spare time, Jacob also enjoyed thrifting and refurbishing furniture. He treasured spending time with his family, whether it be a game night or going out for dinner.
