Jon,

I have very happy memories from our childhood as we went thru school form Candler and onto Enka. It was wonderful getting to meet you again and have the memories form the last High School Reunion. You were a good friend and I will miss you. My thoughts and prayers to your family and the world has lost a wonderful man while heaven has gained a super Angel.

Deacon, you will certainuly be missed here on earth, but I'll bet there were many to greet you in heaven. And you are all celebrating. You were a childhood friend, and a very good man, both gentle and kind. I remember making you dance with me at our last class reunion. You were not to happy about it, but you hung in there. I will miss you. Glad we got to reconnect before your passing. Love and prayers to your family
