Harry S. Jacobs

October 20, 1958 - April 28, 2026

Harry S. Jacobs of Charlestown, NH passed away on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, at the Springfield Hospital. Harry was born on October 20, 1958, in Keene, NH to Frank and Dorothy (Clough) Jacobs. For many years, Harry operated his own business as a carpenter and was known by many for his skillful work.

Harry always enjoyed a Bourbon with the boys, his passion and career was working with wood as a carpenter and craftsman. Harry loved to be on his grill or cooktop putting together an amazing meal. Harry was most at home with said Bourbon around a campfire waiting for a chance to throw out one of his famous “one liners.” Harry always had perfect timing with his quick wit.

Harry had a deep love for his cats and a true appreciation for the outdoors. He loved any chance to hunt and fish with his Boys and grandchildren.

Harry also had a passion for the open road, whether it be traveling to new places, riding his dirtbikes, or admiring classic trucks he one day wanted to have.

Harry is survived by his loving wife, Darlene Jacobs, son, Ben Jacobs, stepson, Chris Wilkinson, stepdaughter, Becky Wilkinson, his grandchildren: Levi Jacobs, Aurora Putnam, Zach (Taylor) Phelps, Noah (Jasmine) Wilkinson, Isaac Wilkinson, Grace Wilkinson and loving great-grandchildren. His brothers, Rod Jacobs, Dave Jacobs and his sisters, Nancy McAdams, Carol Shaw, Maggie Ryan, and multiple nieces and nephews.

Harry was pre-deceased by parents, Frank and Dorothy Jacobs, son, Jon-David Jacobs and nephew, Patrick Shaw.

Harry leaves behind a legacy of love, hard work, and most of all integrity. Though his time here feels far too short, the impact he made on all of us will never fade. He is deeply loved and will forever be profoundly missed.
