Jon Bokowski! DJ Wheels! Much Love brother! You're on the outside looking in, now! Jon taught me so much in such little time and helped affirm feelings and assure me there are no coincidences. An honor to have exchanged musical phenomena with you, Spirit Warrior. Maybe we will meet in the next realm, Peace ~ Zach B. Live Life Off the Dome!

My heartfelt condolences to Jon's, family. I first remember Jon and his family 15 years ago, eating hibachi and sushi at one of his favorite restaurants. I know you're in heaven eating plenty of sushi and a sake. R.I.P. my friend.

Our deepest sympathy to you Valerie and your family on the loss of Jon. He fought a good fight and now he is whole again with no pain. Strange, I was just asking if anyone knew how you guys were making out at the Convention this year. RIP Jon. Hugs to you Valerie

Sorry for your loss for all who knew him. Only knew of him through Lisa Baber. Heard great things. Now he's home with Jesus. Hope you find comfort knowing this.
