So sorry to learn of Jon's passing, and so glad that I had the chance to visit in late March with Jon, Beverly and Sally. What a wonderful friend and cousin he was - however distant we were, he always offered a friendly word, had an understated sense of humor about himself and the world, and kindness toward those around him. I shall miss him!
