Jonathan was born in Maryville Tennessee, and spent much of his youth in Boone, NC. He and Kelly married in 1995 and moved to Crossville. Jonathan was an intelligent, compassionate man with a huge heart, and was a very giving person. He held two masters degrees - one in Higher Education, and the other, English. Everyone who met Jonathan knew him to be polite, well-spoken, and charismatic.

He attended First Christian Church and loved the Lord. Jonathan was very environmentally conscious and cared about keeping God's earth clean. In his free time he could be found with a good book or his Bible, or watching TV while relaxing at home. He was a big fan of the Atlanta Braves and Tennessee Vols. He loved his family dearly and will be missed by so many.
