OHHHH NOOOOOOOO

I loved every bit of this story Jon - I was smiling and loving the ambiance, the character who was so alive, so lovable because of your amazing writing...

At first, I thought - hmmm, I thought Jon was at another university, but kept reading and was clapping as I read that last paragraph and then exclaimed out the biggest - OH NO!!!!!

Oh, so so sad...this hit hard. My condolences on the loss to society for someone who cared to help those around him and who was so real and took time to truly live and interact with those around him...my condolences to the loss of your friend. Ugh -

What a beautiful piece of writing that I am sure he would love you wrote this about him...

Thanks for sharing - one of my favorite writings of yours!
