Not sure what to say?

Thank you for a beautiful bench to sit on at Mary S Young Park. A very nice tribute to an obviously very loved man. I'm sorry for your loss.

From a dMLIS classmate at Ventura County Library in SoCal, wishing Jon's family and friends peace and the comfort of happy memories. I feel so fortunate to have Jon in my cohort. He will be missed.

To Jon's family and friends--deepest sympathies. Jon's sorely missed. I fondly recall conversations with Jon when he worked at Timberland Regional Library's Central Reference department, especially the chats about our favorite books by Ursula Le Guin.

We at Timberland Regional Library send our sympathies to Jon's family. He loved all libraries and he certainly made his mark on our libraries. May he rest in peace. Sally Nash

I'm so sad to hear of Jon's passing. I have fond memories of Jon at numerous Minerva meetings in Maine where his passion for technology, ability to communicate with the masses and sense of humor made him a shining light. Libraries and the world are a better place because of him. My sincerest sympathies to his family. May he rest in peace.

Deepest sympathies to Jon's family from everyone at the Gray Public Library. Jon was such a bright and good man and well respected among all library workers here in Maine. He will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him. Marie Morey (Gray, ME)

Jon, I remember you bringing Lori and little Orion into the Olympia Library and visiting with me. I always enjoyed talking to you. Your one the best people I have met in library land. I will see you on the other side.

I have wonderful memories of working with Jon when we were both in Maine. Libraryland has lost one of its best and brightest. My deepest sympathies to his family. I miss you, Jon!

John was a good friend and fellow library software herder. I worked with him in Maine and will be eternally grateful for his help in wrangling our wireless router into line at the Hartland Public Library. Rest easy, my friend.
