Jon I remember us canoeing when we were in forestry school. You were in front one time and bent sideways to avoid a branch hanging over the stream. We both got wet! Sorry you have passed.

Dear Natalie and family,
I worked for years with Jon. I will always remember his smile and laugh. I am so very sorry for your loss. I know there are no words that can ease your pain at this difficult time, but may your many memories help sustain you.

I was a classmate of Jon's at Penn State. We were all like brothers trying to graduate from a very tough two years. He was a gentleman then and I am sure during his life.
My condolences to his family.
