It was a privilege for us to know this amazing man. We knew him after most of his adventures in big game hunting
but it was fun to talk about the weapons and paraphernalia he had in his Brown Bear´s Den in Moneta.
Jon helped many people as well as us with tax problems. He was always attentive to others even during his health problems over the past few years.
Jon was a sincere Christian and we shared the faith on many occasions. During one of our last meetings, he gave us a copy of Meet Me in the Meadow, Moments with God by Roy Lessin. I have sent some of these thoughts to others who needed some faith raising encouragement to turn to Jesus for important answers to life. Jon's influence is extended to many people.
We rejoice that we will meet Jon again in our heavenly home.
We send love to the family in the hope that they will know that Jon is with our Lord and all will be well.
