April 14, 2018 at 9:41 pmTiffany, I’m so happy for you that you guys were able to get married. I never met Jonathan as you know, but you have told me many of stories and I get the pleasure of knowing and being Friends with you. You were a Friend to me when I had noone and did more for me than most have. That shows your character so knowing that Jonathan loved you for the person you are allows me to imagine his character. I regret that time didn’t allow me to get to know him. He will forever be in your heart and watch over you. I love you! Celebrate his life! Prayers to you his wife and rest of family.
