My name is Bruce Cole and I was one of many teachers working with John when he was in the school division at Starkey. I remember John very well because he always seemed to have a good attitude. He seemed happy and it was obvious that he had been loved his entire life. God bless the family at this time. I feel fortunate that we teachers got to know him back in those days.
A beautiful butterfly now free of its binding cocoon. Godspeed Jon.
My sympathies to Jon’s family, friends and loved ones.
