Jona Portokalle Bejko

I was in my 5th/4th grade split class. Although I don´t have any concrete memories of us as we didn´t really interact too much, she is someone that stuck in my memories as someone kind and friendly. She was a sweet girl and I always thought of her in a good light as we got older in our small little town of Woodstock. I´m not sure when she moved to Florida but I send her and her family so much love and support. Thank you Jona for being kind.

I was Jona's first grade teacher. She was so smart and so kind. She always tried her best and was willing to help others who needed it. She made a small clay dish in Mr. Jones art class that she gave to me. I used it for paperclips and I still am using it in my office. It's always been cherished and especially so now. I am heartbroken to hear of her death. May she live in glory with the angels. My deepest sympathy to her family and friends. I hold you in my heart.

Arta and family, I am so saddened to hear of your loss. I can't imagine how you are feeling. To lose a child must be the most difficult thing ever. I am thing of you and praying that your strength and love will carry you through. God Bless!
