It has been many years, but I remember Jonathan as if it were yesterday. He was a sweetheart, with the sunniest disposition, quick as a fox and ever so friendly. Please accept my prayers and heartfelt sympathy for your loss.

My deepest condolences. I accompanied Jon on Model UN trips to New York City several times. I always enjoyed Jon's clever wit and caring, pleasant ways. Jon was truly an all-around great guy. He will be greatly missed.

I met John one time, he accompanied my son on his 8th grade visit to St. Josephs Prep. Although our encounter was brief, I remember him as an impressive,inspirational young man who embodied the Jesuit philosophy of "Men for others". My son and I were saddened to hear of his passing but I know he must have touched many lives the same way he touched ours on that day. Deepest condolences to the family.

We very, very saddened to hear about your sudden loss. From the time we first met when he and my son Dan were at the Franklin Institute as tots to seeing Jon as Dan's classmate and friend at George Washington U.....he was someone very special.

Our prayers and wishes go out to your family.

We were so saddened to hear of Jon's passing. I met Jon many times in Washington D.C. through my sons Christopher and Andrew. We were together one Sunday afternoon with him last fall watching an Eagles football game and enjoyed his company the entire afternoon. He was so witty, smart and handsome. I was so impressed by his courageous and independent spirit. Although his journey here was a short one, his mark has been left on many people. He showed many people what kindness meant and what courage was and those gifts that he gave will last a lifetime; that is the measure of a man... the impact he has had on other people's lives. May you feel God's love and assurance at this time of your great loss. Our prayers are with your family.

We are so sorry to hear of the loss of Jon. The world lost a very special young man on 2/27/08 but will always be remembered for his enduring strength, courage and kindness. Jon really touched our hearts and minds with interesting conversation and sincerity.
He will be greatly missed but how lucky the world was to him and he will never be forgotten.
We only wished we would have stayed in more contact. Truly our loss. Our prayers and love reach out to his parents who raised a tremendous young man and his brother who shared Jon's life of adventure.
God's peace be with you and around you.
