Kirk and Skip,
My heart is heavy as I write this. Jon was… well he was Jon. No one like him. Growing up he made laugh and it was always fun going to Lake Jenny and playing whatever games we all came up with between your cabin, the Westlund’s, and all the cabins’ kids in between. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.

Very sad to hear about Jon’s passing. I was his roommate at Colorado State University back in the 80s and we had a lot of good times together. Always enjoyed his outgoing nature and sense of humor. You’ll be missed buddy.
