He worked at Bungee in St. Charles and was working at the Arkansas County Juvenile Detention Center at the time of his passing. Jon was a member of St. Charles Baptist Church and a member of Owl City Hunting Club. Jon never met a stranger and the life of the party wherever he was. He was full of stories and loved telling them - the good ones and the bad ones! You had to stop whatever you were doing when Jon told a story because it was going to make you laugh. He was a kind, generous person that treated his friends children as his own. He constantly bought lunch for others when he was out and about. There will be a graveside memorial service at 1:30 pm Sunday, March 14 at Cedarcrest Memorial Gardens. If it is raining, the memorial service will be held at Essex Funeral Home chapel. He will be laid to rest by his beloved wife, Mary Beth. Memorials may be made to St. Charles Baptist Church, P.O. Box 241, St. Charles, AR 72140; Arkansas Sheriffs Youth Ranches, P.O.
