But what really made Jake light up, his family says, being a dad.

Jake wasn't Rachel's biological father.

He married her mother when Rachel was just a baby.

He was never a stepfather or an adoptive father.

He was my dad.

Jake was an Army veteran and mechanic at a nearby Marine base.

He was a guy's guy who, Rachel says, did his best to relate to his makeup-loving daughter.

I mean, he was just so over the moon.
