Kāpiti family pay tribute to 'sensitive, caring, funny' loving son
A Kāpiti family are “blown away” by the outpouring of love and support they have received after the death of their 11-year-old son.
Last Saturday morning, the Tate family went to wake up their eldest son, Jacob, but he could not be roused and was unresponsive. The family called emergency services and attempted to resuscitate him, but it was too late.
Speaking on behalf of Jacob’s parents, Rachel and Andy Tate, close friend Abby Woollaston said Jacob was a sensitive, caring and funny boy.
“He went against the flow and stood out in a crowd,” Woollaston said.
