Jacob was born on July 12, 1993 in Columbus. He was in 8th grade at Columbus Middle School where he was an honor student. Jacob was a member of St. Bonaventure Catholic Church and attended religious education. He was confirmed on October 25, 2007.
Jacob was happiest when playing sports and competing, especially playing for the Columbus Mariners baseball team as a pitcher and catcher. Jacob was also involved in football, basketball, golf, wrestling, soccer, and most recently tennis. Jacob approached every new sports season with the goal of having fun and getting better. He always accomplished both.
During the past year Jacob continued to live life to the fullest. Through Make-A-Wish Foundation, he attended the Final Four tournament in Atlanta and visited his cousins in Georgia. He was guest coach of the day for the Nebraska Cornhuskers baseball team. Jacobs last year was made most special by his many friends who continued to spend time with him.
Jacob is survived by his parents, Jeff and Ann Budler. Jacob had no siblings, but had many cousins with whom he was very close and spent a great deal of time. Jacob is also survived by many aunts and uncles including Mary and David Morgan, Palisade, Colorado; Jane and Bob Patterson, Omaha, Nebraska; Pat and Diane Budler, Kearney, Nebraska; Tom and Barb Budler, York, Nebraska; Bill Budler and Barb Nordmeyer, Lincoln, Nebraska; Tony and Diana Budler, Fordland, Missouri; Laurie and Phil Anderson, Aurora, Nebraska; Mary Jo and Dave Rehm, Carroll, Iowa; Dan Hoff and Paula Logston, York, Nebraska.
Jacob was preceded in death by his grandparents Bernard and Pat Budler, and Don and Darlene Hoff; and his uncle, Mike Hoff.
