Charlton Loftin

Charlton Jacob ''Jake'' Loftin was taken into glory to his heavenly home with Jesus December 30, 2019 at the age of 33.

Jake was born in Lamesa, Texas on July 8, 1986 to Gene and Susan Loftin. In 2003, he welcomed his first daughter, Ariel Star Loftin and graduated from Sundown High School in 2004. After graduation, he was blessed with his second daughter, Kaydence Belle Loftin. He enjoyed spending time with his girls, being with his family, laughing with his sisters April and Stacia, and loving on his best friend and dog, Bowbatty. Jake was a problem-solver and had a servant's heart. If you asked him for help, he was there. He was quick witted, loved Jesus and loved to make you laugh. He enjoyed working with his hands to make something out of nothing and always strived to do his best in all he did.
