Johnathon was a great friend, so kind hearted and nice would help you do anything he could help with and was funny and always making people smile and laugh. I will miss his humor and laughter and that sweet smile. I always enjoyed spending time with him. My favorite memories are how excited he was for me too meet his son after he was born and then excited for me (Aunt Kelly-to all babies but he called me that too) I loved babysitting Chace and getting to see Johnathon more often. I loved seeing him show love to his son and family and friends and pets. He was one of a kind and is already truly missed. I look forward to reunite with him one day. His nickname as most people knew him was Maypop but I called him PapaMay and I’ll never forget him and another friend gave me the nickname ET. I’ll miss you saying “what’s up ET, how you doing?” And “I love you ET”
I Love You Brother. Hate that we didn’t get to squash our difference’s. You was always my best friend so fly high bro maybe one day we can party again
I met John and he was exactly my kind of people! Straight up and caring and always looked for the best in life and loved to enjoy it! He always managed to make me laugh and everyone I know that knew him liked him and thought of him the same way I did! I introduced him to the man I’m with and of course they clicked immediately! He was VERY outgoing and spontaneous! He was definitely one of a kind! We will always remember him for who I know he was! We were both so shook to find out that he was called home, we never know when it’s our time! We will sorely miss him! Fly high maypop….we know you’re looking down and telling us all to stop grieving over your calling, you played a huge roll in people’s lives and I wished we could’ve had more time together! Until we meet again, we’ll keep you in our thoughts and prayers and close to our hearts! J (AKA “Trip”) and I are very grateful for the time we had with you on this Earth together! close
