Jacob Benedict, the most loyal and loving husband, son, brother, and friend, tragically passed away in a car accident on June 14, 2024. Born in Little Rock, Arkansas on July 5th, 1994, Jacob loved and supported the Hogs hard, but loved and supported his family, friends, and especially his wife even harder.
Jacob’s passion for sports, bourbon, family, and camaraderie radiated and brought joy to all who crossed his path; his humor and laugh were contagious. A man of sincere faith, Jacob will be most remembered for his unwavering strength and peace. The way he lived and loved set the example for how others should.
He is survived by his wife, Kristen; parents, Donny and Tammy; sisters: Jordan (Vern Watkins) and Josie; and grandparents: maternal grandmother, Susan, and paternal grandparents Leon and Genny.
A Celebration of Life will take place at Centerpoint Church in Benton, Arkansas on Saturday, June 22nd at 1:00 PM. Jacob would have desired donations to a Go Fund Me in lieu of flowers.
He is missed tremendously by all who knew him, but particularly by his wife and family.
2 Timothy 1:7: “For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power and of love, and of a sound mind.”
