I remember all the days we shared in school at Tri-Cities and playing soccer together. I am so saddened and caught by complete surprise. I even remember laughing and joking about us getting older back in the 2000's when he did some survey work for myself and my partner for our mortgage customers. Jonathan was always smiling. I NEVER saw him without one and he was always happy. The whole family are such wonderful people. I am so so sorry for your loss and he was such a good man. I regret so much losing contact with him and many others over the years. But I know we will meet again in Glory. Love to the family and to all my friends.

My life has been truly enriched having Jonathan as a best friend for decades. Great memories camping on Watauga Lake. I´ll miss his larger-than-life smile and laugh. What a great person he was.
