Dear Little Brother Jonathan,
It's been a year since you've been gone and it was a rough week. We sold our parent's home, the place you last resided, on Wednesday and then the anniversary of your death on Friday. I've such a heavy heart. Fortunately I have some very, very fond memories from childhood and adulthood and then those shared by your friends. You were SO LOVED. Forever in my heart. I look forward to one of your bear hugs.

My dearest - Peejj
I will never forget your love and support. Fondly remember our laughs, tears, the rice pilaf and La Cage Aux Folles. I still have our graduation day pictures from FDU. See you again one day, my beloved friend, on the other side.

Sorry to hear about Jon, very sad news. I knew him through my travels on Wall Street and then we connected again briefly in FL. He was always a pleasant and positive force of nature. May his memory be a blessing.

My brother Jonathan, was magnificent in my eyes. Reading your comments has served as great therapy. Realizing he was such a positive personality in the lives of many is very comforting. Thank you for the kind words and Phil Coryn, for the link to Linked In where the positivity continued.

John was just a pleasure to be around and I have so many found memories of him. I'll never forget the day he walked into the FAME NYC office wearing an ascot to compensate for the "tickle in his throat." Truly one of kind!

I knew JP professionally, but with his personality, I knew him personally as well! What a kind man - always made me laugh. Despite the distance, would always keep in touch via Facebook, with a joke or an upbeat word. So full of life - so sad to see this. Heaven just got a little better knowing JP is up there...

Sad to see him take his leave.
Among other great qualities, Jon had what seemed to be an effortless knack for making everyone around him feel good about themselves.

So very sad to read of Jonathan's sudden passing. He was so kind and gentle and helpful whenever we talked during coffee hour after Church at the First Presbyterian Church. His laughter and good humor was a joy. Andre and Riley and family, please accept my condolences and deepest respect for Jonathan. God Bless Jonathan.

Dear Rob, Chris, and Susan,
Sending my deepest condolences to you all on the sudden passing of Jonathan. So many fond memories of growing up together on Mannetti Lane with all of you -- ours were the first two houses on the street, and I will always think of us as having been like family. Jonathan was such a special human being -- a kind, gentle, loving spirit who obviously touched the lives of many and will be greatly missed. Prayers for all of you during this difficult time. He is gone too soon.

So very sorry to hear of the passing of this great human being. Always had a smile for anyone, so very positive and full of energy. I got to know JP through work and he was very kind in showing me around Greenwich when we were first thinking of moving to the US from the UK. He will be missed and my deepest condolences to his family.

My deepest condolences to Jon's family. I sat with Jon at Trip's Restaurant in Stamford, Connecticut many times. We had great conversations. He was always a gentleman and loved life. Next time I am at Trip's, Janie (owner and bartender) and I will toast Jon.

I've know Jon since our days at Central Junior High. He was so well liked by so many people, and I am glad I was able to call him a friend. Raise a glass, cheers to you Jon, until we meet again. My condolences to all his family.

One of the biggest hearts I ever knew. Jonathan and I met at Fairleigh Dickinson University in New Jersey in the 1980's. Worked together on Wall Street (separate companies) for several years. Even shared an apartment for a couple of years. Full of life. Was Best Man at my wedding in 1990. Jonathan valued and treasured his friendships as much as he did his family. A laugh I will never forget. Rest easy my friend. Miss you already old friend.
