Jonathan Ballon Obituary



It is with profound sadness that the family of Dr. Jonathan Ballon announces his sudden passing on April 30, 2017, at the age of 65. Before relocating to Georgia, Jon practiced neurosurgery for many years at New Britain General Hospital in New Britain, CT and was the founder of Connecticut Valley Neurosurgical Associates. After retiring from neurosurgery, Jon went on to found Aesthetics Hair Restoration Surgery, in Alpharetta, Georgia. Jon leaves his beloved wife of 37 years, Linda, who will miss him immeasurably. In addition to being a loving husband, Jon was also a devoted son, brother, uncle and friend. Arrangements are private and at the discretion of the family, who request that donations in Jon's memory be made to either of his two favorite charities: Equal Justice Initiative, 122 Commerce St., Montgomery AL 36104 or Southern Poverty Law Center, 400 Washington Ave., Montgomery AL 36104 Cards of condolence may be sent to Linda Ballon, 980 Birmingham Road, Suite 501-290, Milton GA 30004. Will Rogers said, "If there are no dogs in heaven, then when I die, I want to go where they went". Jon, may heaven be a paradise for you and your woofs.

My heartfelt sympathies go out to your family during this difficult time. I hope that the promise at 1 Thessalonians 4:14 brings you comfort. Knowing that there is a hope for the ones we have lost in death, can be so reassuring.
