Jon will always be remembered as a kind man who loved his family and friends. We regret not hearing of his passing until now. The last time spent with Jon was on the golf course near his home in Roseville. We played nine holes and went to lunch at the residence club house. He reminisced of his life with Marilyn and their children. He even remembered the night we dined at their home and discovered Ian's (our first born) first tooth. Fond memories of Jon will long remain in our hearts. Good-bye dear friend... we will meet again in a better life.
