Jacob "Jake" Senner

With great sadness, we announce the passing of Jacob (Jake) Allen Senner, a son, brother, beloved husband, and fourth-generation farmer. Jake left this world at peace on May 29th, 2024 at the age of 39 in the grain fields he so deeply loved. Born on July 14th, 1984 in Miles City, Montana, Jake was the son of Terry and Kathy (King) Senner. From a young age, he thrived on the farm alongside his best friend, his dad. His curiosity and eagerness to learn how things operated were often heard through his stream of questions. This deep appreciation for the land and the ability to work with love and passion carried over into everything he did. After graduating from Richey High School in 2002, Jake helped his dad on the farm and started paving his way into the oil industry in the offseason. His diligence and expertise quickly led him to a role in oilfield production in The Bakken and evolved into a flowback consultant in West Texas. In 2007, one year after taking over the family farm, Jake met the wild love of Tia Morasko. With Tia, his eyes and heart were opened to a world he didn't know existed. They married in an intimate ceremony on New Years Eve, 2011, a date he was sure not to forget, and a date they shared in celebration with the Morasko grandparents. The two shared a life filled with laughter, adventure, and an abundance of love for one another. They renewed their vows in the beaches of Puerto Morelos and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, committing their love three times amongst friends although he cared not for the spotlight, he cared more for their love. He developed a love for the finer things in life while developing a fond love of traveling and experiencing the world with Tia. They explored the streets of Italy and England, multiple beaches, and throughout the Badlands from the seats of their Harleys. Their travels were always filled with a quest to find the best local restaurant and savor the subtle differences between each bourbon they tasted, often in the company of new friends they made along the way. Jake had a gift for turning strangers into lifelong friends, staying in touch with many over the years. Along with all their adventures, Jake's proudest accomplishment was the fields of blooming wheat, peas, and lentils he grew with Tia, a testament to their hard work and shared dreams. He was well known by his community as a kind and gentle soul, always ready to lend a helping hand, a respected farmer, and a brother to many. His genuine care for others was demonstrated when he would pause his own operations to put others interest first. Whether working the farm and oilfields or simply sharing a beer on a field with neighbors admiring the beautiful crop, Jake's big smile, infectious personality, and gentle demeanor brought joy and comfort to those around him. His kind heart will live on as fond memories in all the lives he so deeply touched. He will be forever missed by his wife of 12 years, their fur babies Remi and Rebel; his grandmother Mary White of Highlands Ranch, CO; his mother Kathy Senner of Richey, MT; his sisters, Onya and Daryn Winhofer (daughters Olivia and Aubrey, and son Dominic) of Richey, MT and Tye Koonce (daughter Bailey Dillion, her spouse Brandon, granddaughter Kazleigh, grandsons Xavier and Braxton; son Pepper Koonce and his wife Trinity, grandaughters Haisley, Lakelynn, and Sage of Winnsboro, TX); in-laws Jay and Shelly Morasko of Glendive, Montana, sister-in-law Jaylin and Nathan Knuston (daughters Adalynn, Brynlie, and Cali) of Bozeman, MT, brother-in-law Vincent (Chelsie) Morasko (sons Colin and Logan) of Great Falls, MT, his aunts and uncles Pam (Chuck) Luyten of Lone Tree, CO; Tim (Vernice) Senner of Bloomfield, MT; Mike (Carol) King of Littleton CO; and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. A Celebration of Life will be held from 2-4 PM on Tuesday, June 4th, 2024 at the Cottonwood Country Club in Glendive, Montana. Jake's kind heart, selfless spirit, and unwavering dedication to those he deeply cared for will forever be cherished. He may have left this world, but his generous soul will continue to inspire us all. Remembrances and condolences can be shared with the family at: www.silhafuneralhomes.com.
