Dr. Jon sponsered me at the Illinois Chirorpractic Convention as a Student from Lincoln Chirpractic College in Chicago in 1966 and showed us a wonderful time plus gave us much needed advice on the art of being a Chiropractor. God Bless You All

Jon was not only our chiropractor but a dear family friend. My mother was very saddened to hear of his passing. We will remember him fondly.
May God's love cover his family during this time of mourning.

Dear Houser Family,
Jon is the reason I became a chiropractor and went to Lincoln College. He is the one who's care turned my health around. I will always remember his smile and compassion.
