Leave a tribute for Jonathan R. Conway.
Chris sand Sally, Jonathan was my favorite friend from my childhood. He always inspired me and pushed me to be a better man. I saw him in 2010 in Atlanta and had a great time hanging out with him. We got to catch up after so many years, it was great to see him happy and doing so well. I’m not sure what happened after that as we lost touch again, my mom called me with the news and I forgot how much he meant to me. I’m sorry for your loss, he was a loyal friend to me and I always enjoyed being a part of your family growing up. Please know I loved Jon even despite the people around me telling me not to be his friend, I always was. I just wish I could tell him how much I loved him one more time. God bless
We are so sorry for your loss. We will truly miss Jonathan at the gun shows! He was very kind and a wonderful person. Prayers for all the family and his wife and precious little girl!
We send our thoughts and prayers to you all. We were shocked and saddened by the news. We've been neighbors for a very short time but enjoyed talking with you. We are so sorry.
Destiney, Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Noelle and entire family. ~ May Jonathan rest in paradise now~ ~GOD BLESS~
Sally and Chris my heart hurts for you. Sending prayers and hugs to both. He left a beautiful wife and baby girl, I pray God holds you all tight .. Vicki
Sending love to the family. Jonathan and I were good friends as children growing up on wildcat football fields and friend at MHS, class of 96. He was always good friend we could count on.
I just heard about this today. My 💔 heart breaks for you and your daughter Destiney. You will be in my thoughts and prayers
Chris I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how you loved him. I did get to work with him at Jim Ellis and loved him then and had wished him well when he left. I know he was a good man. Sending prayers of comfort and healing to all the family. I can only think at times like these that God needed him and yes he rests at peace!
I am so sorry for your loss. I pray that your fond memories of him will help you all in this time of mourning.
My prayer is that God will embrace you and your family with his loving, healing arms as He guides you through this season of your life. Sincerely....
