Lucas Adolph Jacobson

Lucas Adolf Jacobson died at his home on March 21, 2024. He was born May 7, 1958 at Mercy Hospital, Williston, ND to Ruby (Eberle) and Pendley Jacobson of Bonetraill, ND. “Little Lukie” was the youngest of six children. They moved from the family farm to Grenora, ND, in 1968. Lucas completed twelve years at the Grenora school, graduating in 1976. An avid lover of music, drumming was his passion. While still in junior high, he obtained a trap drum set and would play “licks” with his guitar-playing older brother, Pat. During those years, Lucas spent many hours with his treasured canine, Chester, by his side, affectionately referred to as “a mutt.” Upon graduation, Lucas attended ND State School of Science for electronics and later received his Specialized A.S. degree from Northwest Technical Institute. He developed his musical talents in the twin cities at Boyd Hunt Enterprises, polishing skills to later play in many bands and develop many life-long friendships. The first band he formed that “hit the road” was named Black Lips and he bragged on all the members’ exceptional talent. ‘80’s music was his forte and he could drum, sing, and quote facts of the original singers/songwriters. None of that “country western” music for him! Lucas lived and worked in several different states before settling permanently in Crystal, MN. His mechanical abilities grew along with the many inventions he had spinning in, and then created by, his incredibly creative mind, gaining even more notoriety by being featured in Modern Drum magazine. Lucas started his own company, Eccentric Systems Design, Inc. in 2001. Within that company, he continued designing, patenting, machining, marketing, and managing five different (patented) inventions: Eccentric Base Drum Pedal, Eccentric High Hat Pedal, Visual Tuning Drum Hoop, Bass Pedal Post Spring, and Eccentric Bass Drum Return Spring Cam. His inventions literally changed the music industry. Lucas met the love of his life, Ana Lodor, online in a chat room and worked tirelessly to bring her to the USA from the Philippines, marrying her October 18, 2007. They continued to reside with their constant companion, their deeply-loved dog, Gizmo. Some years later, Lucas had heart complications as well as a stroke. This left him partially paralyzed on his left side. He lost the use of his left arm and could no longer play his drum kit. But that didn’t stop him. At the time of his passing, he was working on and had found interested parties in a perpetual machine that would generate electricity from the ocean. Lucas is survived by his beloved wife, Ana, brother Larry (Jeanne) Jacobson, Bonetraill, ND; Pam (Arden) Lund, Medicine Lake, MT; Karmen (Jim) Siirtola, Mandan, ND; sisters-in-law Christanta Domingo, Terisita Lodor, Elvisa Llagono, Arline Badiola, Cynthia Condor, and brother-in-law Efren Lodor, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins. Lucas was preceded in death by his parents, his mother-and father-in-law, Adoration and Teodulo Lodor, brother Patrick Jacobson, sister Loretta Bakken, nephew Jake Siirtola, and great nephew Conor Volz. Family visitation at Washburn-McReavy Glen Haven Funeral Chapel, 5125 W Broadway, Crystal, MN, will be April 2nd from 4:00 – 5:00 with public visitation from 5:00-7:00. Funeral Mass will be said at St. Raphael Catholic Church, 7301 Bass Lake Road in Crystal, April 3rd at 11:00 a.m. Condolences can be sent to Ana Jacobson, 5708 Pennsylvania Ave, Crystal, MN 55428
