Jacob Duane Saner, 22, known to everyone as Jake, passed away on May 17, 2024. Jake never met a stranger and was always ready to give a big hug. He enjoyed arts, crafts and was known for gifting his creations. His quick wit and humor made Jake a bright light in the lives of everyone he knew. He was born in Cheyenne, Wyoming on May 7, 2002, to Travis and Stephanie Saner and graduated from South High School in 2020. Jake passed away on May 17, 2024.
He is survived by his mother, Stephanie Gocken; father, Travis (Jenee) Saner; sisters, Jessica Saner, Jennifer Galvan-Beattie, Chelsea (Taylor) Newton; brother, Zach (Anaise) Morgan, and numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
As General Douglas MacArthur ends his prayer to his son, “Then I, his father, will dare to whisper, ‘I have not lived in vain.’” so we, too, whisper to Jake.
