The Jake Moore Memorial Site

Thanks to the Waddinton, NY Methodist Church Sunday School for making the donation to the Make-A-Wish Foundation in memory of Jake. The group hosted a Super Bowl dinner on Super Bowl Sunday, 2008 and the proceeds were donated in Jake's memory.

In Memory of Jake Moore

Anyone that knew Jake would tell you he was an extraordinary young man.
In 2001 at the age of 17 he was diagnosed with
Gorham’s Disease, a rare life threatening illness.

This was the start of Jake's journey and his courageous battle.


Jake's family and friends are actively raising money for the Make A Wish Foundation, a charity that Jake thought extremely highly of.

We are also looking at ways raise funds to aid research in to Gorham's Disease.


Although Jake will never be forgotten, this website has been designed with the view to comply with Jake's wishes in getting his story told.


We aim to promote awareness and raise funds for research into this terrible disease, and to become a support group for suffers and their families alike, through offering factual information and an online-community with Jake's family and friends.
