I was so sorry to hear that Jon passed away. As a new teacher of the visually impaired, I learned so much from Jon. He did have a zest for life. A couple of memories are when one of his prosthetic eyes popped out and bounced on the floor & I put it in his palm & told him to go to the restroom to (use the mirror) put it back in. Another time he took my breath away & I saw my career passing in front of me, as he climbed up on the top board/brace of the swing set & walked across it like a balance beam. May your family have God's peace and grace.
