I am late with this message, but I was a friend who adored Jonathan. I am heartbroken to find, while searching how to reconnect with him, that he has passed away at such a young age. That is how I found out. I am so very sorry Beverly and Seymour, your son was very special, intelligent beyond this world, and am so sad I will have to wait a bit to reconnect with him. My heartfelt condolences to all of his family and loved ones. Nothing but fond memories of this young man.

Dear Beverly, Abby, and Seymour,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Jon. I have many fond memories of Sabbath dinners together when we were young and when he "arrived" at Vanderbilt for a surprise visit. He was a good man. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

I am twice devastated by the news of Jon's passing. He, Abby and my dear brother, Rick, who also passed away of cancer just 2 months ago, attended U of C together and remained good friends throughout the years. My deepest condolences go out to the Persky family. I met Jon twice, once at his U of C graduation and once when he visited Nashville with my brother years ago, but have heard Rick speak of him often since that time. Abby, my heart goes out to you at this difficult time.

Jon:
You were my dormmate, friend and Brother. I came from the wrong side of the tracks in Skokie. You came from a wealthier area. You never let that fact stop you from being a friend to me or anyone else. You were generous with your time and energy to a fault. You put others' well-being ahead of your own.
I'll always remember your laugh, the light in your eyes, the irreverence, the intelligence and your love for friends and family.
My condolences to my friend, your sister, Abby and to your parents, all of whom were unfailingly kind and hospitable to me.
