Paul Jacobs Memorial Ride

Memorial Ride for Paul Jacobs

Saturday, August 2, 2025

Please join us for a memorial bike ride honoring the life and spirit of Paul Jacobs—a devoted friend, passionate cyclist, gifted photographer, and beloved member of our community.

Paul passed away on June 21st, following a sudden diagnosis of multiple myeloma. Born in Shirati, Tanzania, and a graduate of Hempfield High School and Millersville University, Paul built a life centered around creativity, adventure, and connection. As the founder of Paul Jacobs Photography, his talent captured countless cherished moments—and his adventurous heart led him into nature as often as possible, whether by bike, on foot, or backpacking in the coldest months of the year.

You may ride (please note the large hill) or drive to the pavilion.

Paul’s wife, Tammy Jacobs, will be there to greet everyone. She looks forward to hearing your memories and stories—especially from those Paul spoke about often—as we come together to celebrate his life.

Let’s ride in Paul’s honor, surrounded by the community, nature, and friendship he loved so deeply.
