Jill and family, Sorry to hear of Jon's passing. I only saw him a few times but he was the much older cousin I always looked up to. May God grant you peace in this difficult time. Daria

Jon was my cousin, although I only met him in person once, as there was a bit of an age difference. However, I absolutely loved getting to know him a little "from a distance" last year as he worked very hard at providing to me some beautiful keepsakes of our grandparents. HIs enthusiasm for passing on our heritage was inspirational and much appreciated. I will treasure the memories he passed on to me, as well as the memory of getting to know Jon just a little this last year. I will keep his beautiful family in my thoughts and prayers as they navigate a difficult time during this crazy year.

We were truly blessed with terrific kickers at Auburn
back in the'60's and "Gpre" was one of them as was
evidenced by his pro career after AU. Enjoyed his
sense of humor and friendship.
