Read MoreLon was a wonderful manager at Vivus! I appreciated him leading us through a tough stage for Vivus but most of all will always remember the incredible gift he gave our sales rep group by going up in a Hot Air Balloon ride over the Utah mountains at dawn. Thank you to his family for loving and supporting him so he could lead us well!!!

Some people are so full of life it's hard to imagine they won't always be around. Lonnie was one of those people. Friendly, outgoing, he could fill a room with his presence. I enjoyed reconnecting with him and meeting his wife at our 50 year class reunion. He will be missed by all who knew him. To his family: may the memories you shared with him bring you comfort as you process this sudden loss.
God bless.....

I am really going to miss my extraordinary friend. Lon was a very special guy who spread joy and humor wherever he went . He was kind caring and always there for you when you needed a true friend. He had a positive impact on everyone he came into contact with and all who knew him called him a friend. I feel so blessed to have known him as a friend for most of my life. He always kept his love for life. I will miss him very much.

I graduated with Lonnie in 1964, from Parma High School. He had a wonderful sense of humor and was always fun to be around. He called me before our last class reunion, catching me up on his life. He was very proud of his lovely wife Susan, his children and grandchildren. Lonnie will be missed by all who knew and cared for him. Rest in peace, my friend.

We met Lon in South Africa. He made friends wherever he went and put forth a great image for the Church. He blessed the lives of everyone he met.

Lon had a bigger than life personality. I felt uplifted and happier being in his presence. He was kind, positive, and always interesting. We knew it would be a wonderful experience when we got to spend time with Lon and Susan. He was a joy of man.
Susan, love to you and your family.
