Jonathon was a high spirited, fun-loving child that his classmates loved. However, he kept his teachers on their toes.  Jonathan was a movie buff. He was a virtual encyclopedia on movies, actors and actresses. He even worked at Phipps Plaza Theater to have access to the new releases. Another job he enjoyed was when he worked for an in flight food service company where he loaded meals on aircraft.
