Jon, we still have no answers and can't understand why you were taken from all of us. Not a minute goes by that we don't feel the loss of our Jon. Last night we watched one of your favorite movies as a little boy, Home Alone. You would watch it over and over. Papa Ed and I tried to watch it through your eyes and laughed and cried at the same time. We all have such wonderful memories during the short time you were on this earth and I know we will all be together again.
Jon, please help keep you family and friends strong. You are loved by so many and nothing can take that away. Love, Grandma

A special young man / Michelle ""Krantz"" (Family Friend ) Jon, I think you were chosen for reasons. Someday I hope we will know. Please take care of you Mom and Family and those who have lost loved ones in our community. It has been a hard time for everyone. So many young lives being taken way too soon. It is a mystery to all. We were so blessed to have you and your fellow friends in our lives, but it doesn't make it any easier. You are so loved and missed. Please take care of all who need it. I love you ! KRANTZ

Missing you so much!!! / Lori Jon,
I was told that time heals all wounds. Well for once I have to say thats not true. You are like one of my sons and I find it so hard to be happy since you're not here. I keep thinking this is just a terrible dream and I will wake up and see you. I find it so hard to go on day after day. Then I'm back to the same point sad and crying and having this void I can't fill. I know I'm not suspose to let this happen to me because you wouldn't let anyone be sad for any reason and I know since you gave your life to the Lord that you are in a better place. I can think back on all the times you were with me and I smile. I can hold onto all those memories but it's just not the same. I miss you more each day and on some days I'm just trying to hold it together. I miss your smile, your gentle and funny loving spirit, the way you cared about everyone and everything. I feel bad each day that I didn't spend more time with you as you got older. I hope you can forgive me for that and know that no one can ever touch the spot in my heart that you did. I pray for your mom and the rest of your family and I ask the Lord to help us all with the pain from loosing you and I ask him to keep a special eye on you for us all. I know whatever your doing there it has to be a very important job. Remember how much I love you and I'm so blessed by you and your family. I thank God for meeting the little boy at the playground each and everyday.
Keep doing whatever your doing up there and wrap your family in your angel wings so they will be safe in this great big world.
With Much Love,
Lori

Happy 4th of July / Barbara (Grandma) Jon, not a day goes by that I don't cry over your loss. Your mother and all of us are so proud of the fine young man you are and you had such a big heart. I don't believe there is a person you met who didn't feel the warmth and compassion in your heart. We all miss you so and can only look forward to the day when we are together again. Until then we know you are watching over us. Love, Grandma

6/16/06 the visit / Karissa (Friend)
Jon the night of the luau Kaitlyn andI knew you visited us and it seem as if you were telling us something as kaitlyn was talking it was as if you were there talking too,hearing noises and getting chills. Then your mom told us it was you.You wanted to play tricks on us or Be at the party with us. And later when I got home I thought maybe you were watching over Kaitlyn and for that I thought that she has a great big brother and because of that night i knew it was true. I know Kaitlyn is proud of you Jonathan.And so was I. Karissa K.
My deepest condolences / Tim Norton (none) I stumbled across this website when lookin for the song IRIS. Although I never knew Jonathan and I live in England this website brought a tear to my eye because of all the beautiful tributes. To all of Jon's family I offer my deepest condolences. I really am lost for words and I'm so sorry for your loss.
http://danny.virtual---memorials.com// Arlene Gundersen (member of GP ) Carole - Jon is such a handsome young man. I'm so sorry for your tragic loss. We travel this journey together. One day at a time, one step at a time. Our sons are always close by us. Someday, we will all be together again. Blessings Arlene Danny's forever Mom http://danny.virtual-memorials.com/
THINKING OF YOU ON MEMEORIAL DAY JONATHAN! / Mom Of Angel Becky Vidmosko
time.../ Shawndrea (never met... ) I am so sorry all of you had to go through this. Time, unfortunately, does not heal all pain... Jonathan sounds like a really beautiful person.... i'm sorry i never got to meet him myself. Know that he is not gone, just waiting for you all to join him when the time comes. God bless you. : ) . I will pray and think of you all.
My Angel / Grandma
Jon, the days just seem to get longer and my heart heavier. Mothers and Grandmothers always want to fix everything for their family and there is nothing I can do to fix our broken hearts. Just know you will always be with us. Love, Grandma
My ray of sunshine!! / Lori Jon,
I spent the weekend with your family and it wasn't the same without you! The garden your mom and dad made you is beautiful and I felt like you were there with me when I was sitting out there. I have so many memories of you and I know you are watching us all. Words will never fill the void in my heart but the fact that I will see you in heaven one day helps me each day. So remember I love you and I miss you!
Love,
Lori

HAPPY EASTER MY Little BUNNY / MAMA (Mommy)
Hi baby,,,well, this is my first Easter without you in 17 years. And, I know even though you thought you were "too old" for the easter bunny and the whole "basket" thing, you still managed to wolf down those chocolate bunnies I would get you! And you had started taking over my role in the Easter egg hunt, by hiding the eggs for your sisters to find...you had so much fun doing that. Oh how I wish you were here...it just won't be the same without you. I miss our silly jokes and cut-downs. I miss our disagreements about going out (where, when and how long) I miss your "rambling on" phone messages....And oh, how I wish you would have been gounded that night and stayed home. But I know Brian was back for the weekend and you wanted to see him. I have not figured out yet how I am going to live with the fact that you will not be here for holidays, vacations, etc....for the rest of my life. How Do I Live with that? Please send me a sign to let me know! I love you my little Easter Bunny! MAMA
