My heart is broken, My sadness too real / Barbara Guyer (family) Since you've gone
My heart is broken, my sadness too real. I keep my great memories and with those I can go on with you in my heart. I find comfort in knowing you would like the idea of your mom and I talking and becoming friends. Friends in you Jon! I am proud of you. You are a beautiful young man! I am lucky to have had you in my life!
While you were here
I loved the way you lit up when Taylor came in the room. I loved your easy way of getting to know our family. I loved feeding you steamers and steak sandwiches. I loved watching Taylor's game with you, just as friends. I loved the look on your face when you met Taylor's Dad. I loved that you were stealing kisses in my driveway..... Thank you for loving Taylor.
I miss you Taylor's Mom
so gorgeous is your Son Jonathan / Renee Clifton (passer by ) Dear Jon & Family,
as i sit here & read threw this beautiful website you have made for your son Jon. I realise i missed out on knowing such a beautiful handsome young man. I cant find words that will ease the pain of losing your son Jon. I am sorry that it had to happen to you all. But i want to share with you what i believe & will always live to believe is that: As you give unto the Lord the Lord will give to you.. I believe that God only takes the very best. And the day He took Jon He granted him with Eternity. He took His hand to share with Him His life. Your son must of loved our Father so very much. The Lord only gives all Eternity to those who give all of them to Him. Please believe that God has a greater plan then any of us. And HE has a big & beautiful plan just for Jon. Jon is closer to you all now then he ever was before. His with you every morning noon & night. God has given him a list of many things to do & first on that list is to watch & care for you.. I will prayer that you have God in your life to help you threw these dark days. I will prayer that they will some how get a little brighter each & every single day. As Jonathan soars to new & more beautiful heights to rejoice in Heaven with our Lord. God Bless you all... You will always be in my thoughts & prayers. Please also feel free to see the website of my cousin Katie that i have made for her. www.katie-harris.memory-of.com
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY JONATHAN!!! / MONICA DAVIS [GP]~ MOM TO ANGEL R.J.
Forver i love you... / Michael Minnichbach (Close Friend )
Jon, No one could put together in words to express my mournful heart. You were one of the greatest and most blessed kids amongst our school buddy. I know that wherever you are, you are happy, cause in my presence u always were man. The morning god took you into his hands was the hardest thing for me to wake up to. I visited maxes' house that evening and i just didnt understand. It didnt seem real, it couldnt be real. But it was.....I can't live with the fact your gone. Everyday i ponder as to if i your sittin right beside me sometime when im home on the computer or in the passenger seat of my car.. I know u are...You taught me to skateboard brother, but i eventually gave it up because i was never in comparison to how talented you were in the sport. Your memories with me are forever charished man. I remember one of the first times you had a few sips of the brewsky was at my house....and you kept me up till almost four in the morning laughing....Abell was amongst us, and you three together were a team.....you still are a team in heaven....im sure the heavenly angels are drulin for you fellas.....I would give up everything i own, to hug ur ass one more time, but i have to wait a long time until i see you in heaven buddy. Your family misses you so much, your sisters your loving mother and your step father..(dad). Your mom sat down with me that nite buddy with max....and we just cried.....thats all we could do....you were hard dealin with then, but now its ever harder to deal with now that your not a home where you should be givin us all a hard time...Even though bobby wasnt ur dad by blood man.....i know by seeing him that nite he loved u ever so dearly...When i walked into your house he seemed so uncomfortable because he thought why are all these kids here and why isnt jon with them....He loves you jon, as well as i, my family, and the rest of your friends and family...You've taught me a lesson my friend. You have taught me that friends are the most important thing in life...and being happy. You have taught me that life is too short to hold grudges with friends and you should always love them..and i will always forever love you......and don't worry i will keep the older guys off ur sister when they are older.....i got you buddy.....LOVE YOU SOO MUCH DUDE....
We will remember ... / Pong And Larry Barrett (Grandparents) Jon We will remember your ballgames, and holidays here, and your science project that we put together in the basement . It was always fun to have you here for dinner because you enjoyed it so much. We are glad that you have been, and still are, a part of our lives. Love, Grandmother and Grandfather B.
Grandma's angel / Barbara Steiner (grandma) Jon, I can't find the words to say how much we miss you since you were taken away. It doesn't seem right, what happened that night, but my faith tells me that it is not up to us to decide when God needs us. I just know that my heart is so broken and the pain is so raw, but I have to stay strong for your mom and dad and sisters. I will see you again. Rest peacefully my sweet angel. Love, Grandma
I too lost my son who was born in 1988. / Lisa Woerner (Angel mom of Travis ) I am so sorry for your tragic loss. It is so hard when you don't get to say goodbye. My son died from head and internal injuries when he was in the backseat of a car that hit a steam roller on a highway exit. He was ejected 60 feet. He died 5 days later. My mom died when I was 17 in a hotel fire. Tragedy wasn't new to me. I just hope and pray that I don't have anymore sudden losses in my life again. He was so loved by the community. He loved sports and he had lots of friends. I know your community had to be totally paralyzed by your tragedy and the loss of the other children in the fire. May God Bless you and your family.<img src="http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d40/sweetlilangel51/dec2003021.jpg" alt="Image hosting by Photobucket">
Memories/ Brittany DeLuca (Friend) Jon I miss you with every second of my day. I know I must remember you by the good times we had and let that cheer me up. I cant help but feel sadness, knowing that there wont be any more memories like those of Halloween night and at the soccer games. I remember every single thing about halloween night, like when we took pictures of our eyes but you kept missing your eye so I took it and the flash off your eye blinded me. And the sign on the heater in town. I even remember your joke about the cake and making sure we didnt split the pole. You were truely like our big brother taking us tricker treating. I wish I could relive that night every night, because that was the best night of my life. That was when I became friends with you. In know you are watching over us in Heaven with Mike n Brian and I try to find ease in that, I will never forgett the time spent with you, because in the end memories are all you have. Until I see you in heaven keeps us safe n watch over your Mom n Bobby n Kaitlin n Brooke. I will never forgett you. I will always love you. ~Brittany~
