Jonathan Zablotny Memoriam

Jonathan James Zablotny
ZABLOTNY, Jonathan - Jonathan James Alexander Zablotny was a tall and tousle-haired, handsome 18-year-old young man, who was friendly to all. Jonathan died on Feb. 1st. He was a senior at the French-American International School, International High School. Jonathan loved tigers, the environment, the card game "Magic, the Gathering," and almost every other game, whether board or electronic. He would carry his friends' soda cans home from school to be sure that they were properly recycled in a blue bin. Jonathan was born Sept. 24, 1986, in the Year of the Tiger. His room reflected his passion for tigers. Jonathan discovered "Magic, the Gathering" at a young age, and became totally devoted to knowing all he could about it. Jonathan combined his love of science with acting. He always acted with his entire being: his voice, his face, his lanky body. He was edgy, multifaceted, enchanting, with just the right touch of zaniness.
We want to remember Jonathan today 20 years after his death.
He awaits us beyond space and time where death has no dominion.
