The best memories I have of Jonathon are when we were young kids and played basketball out on the court together....it was so competitive. I have many other memories as well. What a great friend and neighbor he was and will greatly be missed.

Just wanted to send my condolences to Jonathen's family. I went to school with Jon and interacted with him at the hospital on many occasions (I work there as a P.T.) I knew he was ill but didn't expect he was so close to passing. God bless your family..he was a great guy.

I attended Shelley schools with Jon. Although Jon graduated a year before me, we interacted on many occasions. Jon was far too young to pass into eternal life. Please accept my condolences on the loss of Jon.
