Remembering: Quintessential Jona


Seeing the following conversation on a Facebook page, dedicated to remembering Jona, made me smile:

Charlene wrote:
I never met Jona, but I’ve been telling everyone that he’s my friend. I can’t wait to meet him someday.

Several of Jona’s friends commented:

Jaime:
Jona would not have needed long to become your friend. He was a very friendly guy and would probably have introduced himself before you had a chance to!

Willy:
Not to mention telling a blond joke!

Chelsea:
And by the time you were leaving teasing you about something.

What a blessing to read your descriptions of him – even through tears... Thank-you! In just a few short phrases, you all captured the essence of his personality!

  1. I just realized your nephew Jona is the same Jonatan we faithfully prayed for in our Sunday School class. Carrie Liss would give us regular updates and such. He sounds like a remarkable young man who was in love with Jesus, all the moreso now!
