Brian was a senior environmental consultant with Environmental Management Group where he managed worksites around the country.  In 2013, he moved to Pella. 

Brian was a man of few words, but when he spoke, people listened. He loved sports, whether it was coaching teams, playing in a softball league or watching the Baltimore Orioles or the Ravens. 

Brian was a builder of homes and people. He loved mission trips to Baja, Mexico where he transformed the culture of the trip.  He was a child of God and shared his faith often through his writing. Words he lived by were: builder, believe and hope.  He was loving, caring and a great Dad!

Those left to cherish his memory are his two children: Mason and Lani Jakubiak, his mother Charlotte; his sister Michelle Jakubiak, and his brothers: Christopher and Beth Jakubiak and Michael and Sheila Jakubiak.  He is also survived by his aunts and uncles, nieces and nephews, and a host of great friends.
