Fondest memories of Jonah
I don’t have one single memory. Most of my favorite memories revolve around family vacations, or time spent together in younger years.
How Jonah will be missed
I will always and forever miss hearing the word “mom”. There won’t be another person ever to utter that word to me. I will miss feeling his hug. I will miss how he always turned his scruffy cheek to me for a kiss before he left the house. I will miss everything about Jonah.
How Jonah will be remembered
I want Jonah to be remembered not for his struggles over the past few years, but for his bouts of determination to be better. To feel better. To live differently. To be clean. He was so afraid to feel life raw and unfiltered. But what I want to remember is the love that he had for everyone. How he cared so deeply for the ones around him. How he loved to cook. How he loved to shoot. How he loved to print. How he loved to create. And his smile. And his “trouble laugh”.
