Sweet Jon, I guess I don't need to visit you and Jeff and yack at you guys, since Grandma is now with you and watching over you. She is free and so happy to be with the two loves of her life, I am sure. Send some signs, please. We are lonely without all of you. Love, Aunt Jennie

J-Wag, It is so hard to believe you and your brother are really gone. I know you are in a better place and God needed you 2 as angels. I miss you so much and I don't know what I'll do without you when I go to Ottos in the summer for ladies night. It won't be the same. In fact, I might not even go now. It won't be the same ever. You were my roll dog and I loved you. You will always be in my heart. You have so many friends that I run into them all the time and share a memory or 2 of you. XOXOX

Jon

this is all so hard. Are you ok, now? I always worried so much about you.
I am so happy for the time you and I and Andy and your dad rented canoes~we thought we would paddle from Rt. 3 to Waysons Corner~ in a drought? The best part was (I think it was you who did it) you tipped the conoe over and you and your dad went in the mud. The looks you two had-priceless. We all laughed so hard! and the time I just got home from shopping you ~were at the house, I was showing you everything I purchased, I pulled these great tennis shoes out of the bag, put them on, and you thought they were hot-you made me feel good.
You and Jeff are so deeply missed. Your Uncle Andy is so sad-please help me make him ok. I love you Mary

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Jonathan I only knew for a short while but the short time, I could see his determination and his stride to do the right thing. He was a great guy and you could see his compassion in his eyes. He will be missed by me as well as everyone who knew him. Keep the smile Jonathan, people smile back.

As you return to life’s routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Remember to laugh a little each day, for that's what he'd
make you do.

Jon, I wish I would have been more a part of your life and could have experienced your growing up from that cute little red headed kid with glasses into a young man. I now realize we had so much in common. You and Jeffrey take care of each other. I will miss you. Love, Aunt Suzy

Dearest Jon....I thought I had a lifetime to know and love you, but it was not to be. I thought you were
busy "doing your own thing" and did not realize that perhaps you needed my love and support more than it was available to you. I thought that because I thought you were alot like me. I was wrong and I must live with that knowledge. Know that I will always love you and that I was proud to be called your Aunt Jennie. Please take care of your brother and watch over those of us left behind. My love and admiration for you is forever sweetie.

Aunt Jennie
