Not sure what to say?

Jonathan is with God. I loved him as a brother.

John was a true original. Sat in back of me in home room through high school. Witty, and probably the most intelligent guy in UHS.

Sincere Condolences from Union HighSchool Class of ‘64 to Allison, friends and family. Jonathan will be remembered as funny with a great laugh, brilliant, sweet and quiet.

Jon and I enjoyed a good friendship for several years, from high school thru post-NYC Masters' Days. He introduced me to Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Chapel House spiritual retreat at Colgate, travel adventures to Canada, so much more. He was a dear sweet soul and truly supportive friend. He will be missed.
