A Time To Mourn

Life is an awful lot like grabbing hold of the tail of a twister and hanging on for dear life.  One day we are laughing over our latest RV adventure, and the next turn of the clock brings piercing grief.  We are so saddened by the unexpected death of our former son-in-law Jon.  He died unexpectedly two days after Christmas. 
 
Jon was a gentle, loving man, a humble sort.  He was the kindest man we’d ever met; a true gentleman, a wonderful father.  Jon was of sterling character and lived his life with dignity.  This was a man loved by all who knew him. 
G's two young granddaughters have lost their daddy, and we grieve with them.  It will never be the same when we return to Connecticut to visit family.  Jon will be conspicuously absent.  He was only 50.  We loved him dearly.  The world is a sadder place without the light of his presence.

  1. Sounds like he would have been a great friend with honestly, integrity and love. I know he was all that and more to his family.
