Kathy and Jonathon,
I'm so sorry that you're family is going through this. Your Dad was incredible. He was my first boyfriend ever, and to let you know how special he was, he was never forgotten. He tracked me down a few months ago and we had some awesome conversations. He talked about all the wonderful things ya'll had done together, and to Kathy, he let me know you were always there for him and even helped him find his house. Please know you're in my prayers and heart. And to John, I know you're in a good place, happy and smiling down on us. Find my son up there and make him behave until i'm there with you all. Love you.
