Gooch
I was supposed to be his Uncle Knuckles for the duration of my life.
That’s who I was to Gooch since the mid-70’s, and he was “Gooch” to me pretty much since he was born. I called myself his “protection” in the South Side of Chicago then. He’d “pay” for that protection with Tootsie Roll midgets that he got from my Mom, his Grandma. My Mom thought it was ridiculous. The nicknames stuck.

So sorry for your loss! Jon (Chris) was one of my bestest friends growing up along with his sister Jenny they lived across street from us we always hung out and played board games and ate pop tarts and drank mountain dew also with our good friend Rob Taynor. Jon
you will be greatly missed love you!!

Sincere, condolences to Chris's family. I couldn't believe the horrible news of his passing. I knew Chris many years ago, when we were young, we all hung out and loved our music and guitars. You'll be missed my friend! Save a place for me in the heavenly band!

I was shocked to hear of Jon's passing, and this has hit me very hard. Out of all my friends from Upper Sandusky when were growing up, Jon was a true renaissance man with talent in music, sports and even drawing cartoons of teachers we disliked.
The world will now be just a little bit darker now that he is gone, but he will NEVER be forgotten! RIP my friend.

What a loss. Sorry to hear this. Will always remember his musical talent.

What a shock for me! He is way too young! I send my prayers for God’s comfort
