To the Urkevich Family: I was saddened to read of Jake's recent passing. My best wishes and sympathy go out to your family. I grew up on Gilbert St. (near Penrose Ave.) in Mechanicville. I fondly recall Jake's friendly smile and regular hello to the kids in the neighborhood. Indeed, it is one of my keen memories from long ago.Until I read Jake's obituary,I did not know of his courageous World War II experiences. Truly a great patriot hero.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have enjoyed seeing and visiting with both your parents at Barnwell for the past several years. My dad, Bill is on the first floor. Joe always had a smile on his face and beamed as he told me proud stories of his family. He will be missed by so many.
