You have no reason to remember me, I might have met you only one or two times, but Jon was in my class, probably starting around first or second grade in Cape Elizabeth and I knew him in our tight little school community up until we graduated high school. We weren’t necessarily always in the same friend circle, but I remember Jon was always incredibly kind, thoughtful, and inclusive. If you needed help, Jon was always willing to lend a hand. I am so, so sorry for your loss, and just wanted to say that you’re all in my thoughts and prayers. Chris Ellis
