I served with Jonathan in the 11ACR in Vietnam. He was one hell of a good guy and a tremendous wrecker operator.

I am so sorry for your loss and I am praying for your family. Jeb and I worked together for first 12 or so years at Penske. He was such a bright guy and shared a passion for problem solving. He came up with so many unique solutions and had such a breadth of knowledge about all kinds of subjects.
