Jonathan Towler Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 16, 2025.
Jonathan Robert Towler, 30, passed away on April 9, 2025, in Sanford, Florida. Born on November 19, 1994, in Ypsilanti, Michigan, Jonathan lived a life marked by love, perseverance, and an unwavering commitment to his family and passions.

At the heart of Jon's world was his family. Jon was deeply dedicated to his beautiful partner, Brittney Kilroy, and took immense pride in being a father. His son Julius was the light of his life; being Julius' dad meant everything to Jon. He also cherished his bonus son, Colten Morrison, embracing the role of stepfather with warmth and care. Throughout his life, Jon shared a special and unbreakable bond with his devoted mom, Beverly.

Jon was a man of vision and determination. He channeled his entrepreneurial spirit into building his own business, specializing in outdoor solutions and summer kitchens. Through his work, he brought joy to countless clients who were able to enjoy their homes in new ways thanks to his creativity and craftsmanship. His dedication to quality and service reflected the same values he carried into every aspect of his life.

Outside of work and family, Jon found joy in the simple calm of life. An avid fisherman, Jon would jump at the chance to bait a line and relax on the water. Jon was an amazing cook, making and sharing delicious meals with loved ones. Raised with a love of music, Jon would immerse himself in the rhythm and harmony while playing the drums. These hobbies were not just pastimes but expressions of his vibrant spirit.

Those who knew Jon will remember him for his genuine nature and ever-present smile. He had a heart full of love and an outlook that always sought the good in others. Honest, hardworking, goal-oriented, Jon lived with purpose and integrity. His sincerity left a lasting impression on everyone he met.

Jon's heart, soul and legacy are proudly and lovingly remembered by his parents, Beverly and Les Crawford; his brothers, Cody and Tyler Crawford; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins who cherished him deeply. He was preceded in death by his beloved grandfather Robert Towler and grandmothers Janet Towler and Vickie Towler.

Jon's family will gather to honor him privately and a celebration of Jon's life, open to all, will be held at a later date.

May Jonathan Robert Towler's beautiful memory continue to inspire love, kindness, and dedication in all who carry him in their hearts.

Dear Jon, I will always cherish those Friday nights that we shared together in the trenches. I will never forget going to Haul over canal trip and every other fishing trip we took together. I will never forget going out to Cassadaga every Sunday to ride the dirt bikes . But most of all I will never forget you as my brother. We share the same zodiac so we often would bump heads, but was always love. I love you Jon. Always an forever in our hearts JT#55

I´ll never forget all the good times I shared with John. He wasn´t just one of my best friends-he was one of the most talented, good-hearted people I´ve ever met. A true gentle giant, always looking out for everyone around him with that calm, steady presence.

Some of my favorite memories are of us out fishing, just sitting in the quiet, casting lines, talking about life-and always ending up in some deep debate about who the greatest drummer was. John had his favorites, and he knew his stuff. He loved music, and you could see that same rhythm and precision in the way he worked with his hands.
He was an incredibly skilled carpenter-one of the best I´ve seen-but even more impressive was the kind of man he was. Kind, loyal, genuine. He left this world way too soon, and he´ll be deeply missed by everyone who had the honor of knowing him.
But I believe God has a bigger plan for John. Heaven just gained someone truly special.
Sincerely, Sebastian
