Pleasanton Mom Gets A Special Shoutout From Her Daughter-In-Law
Patch and T-Mobile are partnering to shine a light on awesome moms in the Pleasanton area. Meet Myrna Jacobsen!

PLEASANTON, CA— Moms do so much for everyone around them. We try to celebrate them all year long, but Mother's Day is a perfect opportunity to shout it from the rooftops and post it on Patch: Mom rocks!
Here at Patch we've launched an initiative to help recognize the awesome moms and mom figures in communities like yours.
This submission comes from Gena Thompson who nominated Myrna Jacobsen of Pleasanton.
What makes your Mom extra special?
Myrna is my mother-in-law (Mom)! She raised four kids that all turned out to be kind and wonderful people! She is responsible for giving me the greatest husband on earth (Eric Thompson) that I will be celebrating our 32nd wedding anniversary with on Mother’s Day this year! Her other children — Rod, Jeff, and Natalie — have always been loving and kind to me as she raised them to be kind, loving, good people. Myrna truly deserves not just to be honored on Mother’s Day, but every day! ❤️
Why do you feel your Mom deserves the spotlight?
She raised four of the best people I know!
Happy Mother's Day to Myrna Jacobsen, and thank you for all you do!
