Jon was passionate and had such a zest for life.  She always made you feel special and everything was more fun when she was with you.  She was my best friend while Seniors in High School and later was my first roomate, Bridesmaid at my wedding and I, hers. 

I will always remember the joy and excitement in her voice when she called to tell me she was pregnant.  I never thought she could be happier, but then along came G.  The unconditional love she had for that boy was special.  

I was blessed to reunite with JR a few years ago and saw her most recently last Spring.  It was clear that despite the health issues she was facing, her sense of humor, passion and love of her family and friends could not be dimmed.  Her giggles filled the air as we reminiced about the antics of our youth  and it was if no time had passed.

She will always be a part of my heart.  RIP Jon Rene.

Cara, my heart is with you. Your mom was such a big part of my early years. Our birthdays were two days apart and when little, e had our birthdays together. May her memory always be a blessing. 

❤️ Susie
