Jon,

I can't believe it's been so long. I still talk about you if you can believe that. I think you would have been proud of me for the path I have chosen to take and I wish I could have you give me a hard time about it. I miss you still. I guess it's weird to miss somebody I've never met in person, but you and other online friends of mine were there for me when some of my closest people weren't. I wish I had been there for you when you needed somebody. I'm sorry.

Never met Jon in person, but I feel like we were personal friends all the same. I'll never forget all the interesting conversations we had, all the hilarious things he's said, and all the laughs we shared in the G&P Stickam room. It's sad to know he's gone. I only hope he knew how much he made some of us smile, that our lives were that much better because he was a part of them. Jon, you are missed, sir. By the way.. if we were wrong after all, give the FSM my regards.

Also, my condolences to Jon's friends and family. He had a good heart.

I spent a great deal of time getting to know Jon in the years I knew him and he became a good friend and coworker. He had a witty sense of humor and was strong in his beliefs.

I've spent a lot of time thinking of just the right words to write but still nothing comes to mind. I guess that's because there are no right words in the face of such a tragedy. Sometimes terrible things just happen and we're caught in such a moment of shock that all we can do is stop and stare. My sympathies go out to all who knew and loved him, he was a good entertainer in our chat room and an even better friend. He will truly be missed. Rest in peace, Jon...

My condolences to his family and those closest to him.

I am very lucky to have known him and it is unfortunate that he isn't around anymore.

I never met him in person, but he was one of the funniest people I have ever known, and we all loved him for that. He was a good friend with a big heart. I will never forget all the jokes he made, his hilarious audio files and froggies, amazing impersonations, and all the conversations we had.

He will be missed and remembered.

Known as "Bumbklaat" online, he was a good person to chat with.

My condolences to Jon's friends and family. I never met Jon in person, but we joked around all the time in his favorite online chat-room. Jon had a great sense of humor and could really roll with punches and give them right back. We will all miss the prank calls, inside jokes and impersonations.

I'll never forget the time he tried to described some candy as "indescribable Jewish sack candy" and I said "Chocolate gold coins?" and his response was "How did you know?"

Many of laughs came from moments like that. He will be missed dearly.
