I pray that all of Jon's friends and family are, in time, comforted with the knowledge that he, like so many before him and many to follow, gave his life providing freedom for humans on the other side of the world and securing our counrty. Jon is a hero. Although I never had the opportunity to meet Jon, all of us in the military community, past and present, are heartbroken for the the loss of this hero, Jon. With deepest regret I thank Jon and what he stood for. I also thank his family and friends for sharing him with us. His fellow soldiers worldwide will never forget him nor the price he was asked to pay for all of our freedoms.

Claremore Ok,
The men and women who freely choose to serve our country are especially important and dear to all of us who have served and are now still guarding the gates of freedom, they are our country’s bravest, our finest, our best.

It is always difficult, especially at times like this, to understand why a soldier may have to make the ultimate sacrifice while serving to protect his or her country. But at this time, more than at any other time, we turn our thoughts and prayers to God and ask him to take our loved ones into his arms and protect them for all of eternity for only he knows the meaning behind the loss of each of our loved ones.

In great respect and deep admiration for Jon’s love of his country, family, and community and for his selfless sacrifice we are and always will be there for you. We are so deeply saddened by loss of one of our own who had so much more to give the world. He is and always will be an inspiration to all of us who have answered our nations call to defend her and our very freedoms and liberties.

Giving one's life for your country is the highest act of valor and patriotism possible. Your son is a true patriot! His bravery and valor are evident. He died protecting his brothers and sisters in arms and defending freedom for the country he loved so dearly. The brothers and sisters of VFW Post 8706 in Moore, OK want to let you know how very sorry we are for your loss. Please extend our sympathy to your entire family and call upon us anytime day or night if there is anything we can do for you and your family.

God Bless You and God Bless the United States of America!

Sincerely Yours,
Christopher L Rogers

My heart is heavy and breaking for my family in Ok....I pray that you all can find peace and know that he fought for all of us. He was family, however I never had the honor of meeting him, too many miles apart. But I know you had a wonderful dad, aunts and uncles. You were taken way to early, you will live on and your name will represent a honorable soldier that served his country well! God Bless, Love to all ?
