Jonathan Woodbury Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 23, 2009.
JONATHAN WOODBURY Jonathan Franklin Woodbury, a native of Las Vegas, passed away Oct. 18, 2009, at the tender age of 30, from complications related to pneumonia and the flu. He was born June 26, 1979, and was a lifelong resident of Las Vegas. Jonathan was a graduate of Green Valley High School and received his bachelors' degree in psychology with a minor in counseling from UNLV 2005. He worked in the mental health field until he went back to school at Touro University Nevada and had just completed his first semester to become a physicians' assistant. As a young boy he was involved in Cub Scouts/Boys Scouts, played the saxophone and in many youth sports, until his teen years when he exclusively played ice hockey. Jonathan was also involved in Las Vegas Junior Chamber of Commerce at one time. At 6'6" he was a gentle giant with a kind and caring heart who expressed himself through writing. His smile could light up any room and he will be missed greatly. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Dr. Howard Woodbury and Elma Woodbury. Jonathan is survived by his father, Frank Woodbury; mother, Dee Woodbury; brothers, Jeff McMillin and family and Mike McMillin and family; sisters, Lisa Baugh and family and Lindsey Woodbury-Enriquez; brother-in law, Felipe Enriquez; nieces, Eileen and Emma Enriquez; and girlfriend, Amanda Grundy. Memorial service will be at 5 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 24, at Palm Mortuary, 7600 S. Eastern Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89123.

I am deeply saddened to find this out so late. My heart breaks for the family. Words cannot describe my sympathy. I feel blessed to have known Jonathan for the time that I did and am happy to say that he was always there for me when I needed him. He had such a kind nature to him. I'm sorry I didn't know sooner to show my love and support. <3

I can't even believe this has happened, you were one of the nicest coworkers I've ever had. We spent many days during our downtime talking about the future, your love for your girlfriend, your hopes and dreams and plans with being a physician assistant. I feel like the wind has been taken out of me, knowing you even briefly has helped me appreciate life and the fragility of it. I know you are resting in peace and we will all miss you. I will never forget you and our brief friendship.

I love you and miss you so much sweetheart. You were my best friend, my heart, my everything. We had so many plans, so many dreams, and now I feel so lost without you. I keep waiting for the phone to ring and hear your voice on the other end. You filled my life with so much happiness and love and I will never find another person in this world that will share the bond that we had. My twin flame, the one and only other half of one's soul, for which all souls are driven to find and join...I am so grateful I got to experience that with you. I wish you were here with me right now you always knew exactly what to say and do to make everything okay again now I just dont know if it ever will be. I am trying to stay strong for you, I hope you know how much I love you and each day that passes breaks my heart more and more. I hope you watch over me and your family. You were my "bear", the one who was always there to protect me. I cherish each moment I spent with you and all of the memories we have made. You were the most amazing, beautiful person I have ever known and you will always have my heart. I will dream of you until I see you again, I know that I will. I will love you always.

Dr. J, our Golden child,
You were the ray of light on the darkest days, and that irresistible combo of wit, whimsy and true empathy.
You brought us grace and taught us courage, the very best example of a strong spirit and a tender heart.

Your presence can't be diminished, even in passing. With this huge legacy of love you've left behind, we know you'll always be just an angel's kiss away.

We love you now and always, sweet manchild.

I love you and I will miss you so very much. You, Lindsey and your entire family have been in our lives for so long I feel very fortunate to have been a part of it. I will always remember you as the little boy playing with Andrew He- man and shooting hockey pucks at each other in front of the house. Harassing Kristina and Lindsey and just being a big brother. I miss you Jon .

Dear Frank, Dee & Lindsey,

Stefano and I were so very saddened and devastated by the news about Jonathan passing. I know words cannot really help you right now, but please know how very much we care and feel for you in your loss.

Jonathon was such a kind, thoughtful, funny, creative person, and we will miss him very much. He truly touched our lives. I will never forget the trip he made to Portland, OR just to be with us for a short while. He was a well mannered and inspiring soul; we will miss him very much. We are so saddened by losing him from our lives.

Our love and support will always be here for you in your time of need. Once again, we are so sorry for your loss.

We will keep you in our prayers.

I will miss you a great deal Jonathan. I will always keep you in my heart. I will truly miss you. I remember you as a little boy and it's as if I still remember you that way. The news of your death was shocking and very hard to accept. May you go through the Gates of Heaven and one day we shall meet again. I love you.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. I will miss you greatly Jonathan. I can't express how much I will miss you. I will always remember how you helped me through the tough times, but through this one I am unsure. I love you and I miss you and you are always in my heart.

I had a pleasure of working with Jonathan and he will be truly miss. He's such a compassionate person and loves what he does best. This news is shocking and unbearable to handle. I still owe him coffee . Jonathan, may you rest in peace! To his family may God give you strength through this hard time!
