Peter, Pat and the rest of the Jonas family
I had the pleasure of knowing Jack and Peter and Pat having been part of Center Industries , which is an awesome company doing awesome things for the disabled. Center Industries was the most rewarding company that I ever worked for because of the Jonas family,
I know that your hearts are heavy at this time but may the memories of the good times bring pleasure in the future.
