Jake was born May 12, 1983 to Dave and Jody Wiechman in West Point, NE.  He attended Guardian Angels grade school, graduating from West Point Central Catholic High School. Following his graduation, he earned his degree in graphic design from The Creative Center in Omaha.  His speciality was in web design, creating apps, marketing and branding.  His talent was immense and was sought out by fellow entrepreneurs for his special gift for original and inventive ideas.

Jake had a profound love of nature and the great outdoors.  He loved hiking, biking and running.  His love of running led him to multiple marathons.  He qualified and ran the Chicago and Boston Marathon where his family cheered him on.

Jake had a gentle spirit and giving heart.  He felt deeply for his family and friends.  His relationship with the Lord was important to him.  His reunion with his dad, Dave was a celebration for them but is bringing a true sense of loss to others with an amazing life cut too short.

Jake leaves behind his mom, Jody Wiechman of West Point; sister, Sadi (Nick) VonSeggern, nephews and nieces Mason, Everly and Wyatt of McCook Lake, SD; and sister, Abby (Jason) Kreikemeier and niece Lily of Omaha.
