My deepest sympathy to you all. I just can't imagine your pain in losing Jon at such a young age. I know there is finally relief of his discomfort, and may peace come to you in that. May you relish in all of the rich memories with Jon, and he made a lot of memories! May you feel blessed to have lived with such an amazing soul for as long as you were able, and may time soften the aching of his absence. Hugs and Love, Evette
