It must be numbing to have someone that was not just a good friend, but so much a part of your coming-of-age, be gone so suddenly and permanently. I should be doing homework right now, but I just thought I'd write to let you know I'm sorry for your loss and am very sad for his family and fiance. I took honors English and honors government with Jon junior year. We had some deep conversations and I enjoyed hearing his perspective. It seemed he felt misunderstood sometimes in high school, when people labeled him as a jock or gym rat or whatever, but he wanted people to see all the other parts, his mind and intellect, and to know he was much more than a label. I really got that, and I was hoping to see him at reunion and see far he had gone with his weight lifting and his other pursuits. I am impressed that he was going to become a nurse and that he was engaged. I just can't believe all that could be taken away so quickly. Thanks for your post and for letting me vent to you, even if you don't post this comment. I wish I could attend this celebration of life on Tuesday, but I live in Massachusetts. Again, I am sorry for your loss. <br />MargoMargohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18021177113891135222noreply@blogger.com
