Thinking about Jonathan brings to mind, so many wonderful memories. Most people thought that Jonathan was a very quiet person but, he actually had a lot to say. He had a wonderful sense of humor, which constantly made you laugh or put a smile on your face. Our niece, Mamie said he was our family's "Gentle Giant", which was a very profound description of him. Gentle Giant indeed, because Jonathan was, a very kind, and loving, gentleman. He never held back when it came to lending a helping hand. If Jonathan said he would do something, you could rest assured, that he would follow through and complete his commitment. Jonathan was indeed, a very dependable person. We as a family, loved
Jonathan and knew without a doubt that he loved us too. Jonathan will be missed not just by our family, but by many, many others as well. Having to say good bye to him, was one of the hardest things to do.
