Rep. Sara Jacobs Releases Statement on Passing of Her Grandmother, Joan Jacobs
Rep. Sara Jacobs (CA-51) released the following statement on the passing of her grandmother, Joan Jacobs, at the age of 91:
“After four sons, I was my Grandma Joan’s first girl – and she spent every day making sure I knew I was special and loved. She pushed me and everyone around her to be the best versions of themselves, and I’m forever grateful for that. She showed me that I could be feminine and win an argument, I could be a wife and mother and grandmother and also a leader, and I could chart my own path in life while still remembering and giving back to my community. I am who I am because I am her granddaughter. I will forever cherish the time we spent together and always remember the lessons she taught me that I’ll teach to my own children one day.”
