Jonny,
I will never forget the first time we bowled with you and Marty at 5 Star bowling alley, who would have thought then what a big part of my life you would have become. Over the course of the seasons I can remember my friends and your friends hanging out after bowling and then came the parties. Until one day you did something that would change my life forever (and neither of us would really know the impact of it until now). When my friend Colleen and you first started dating, and Larry showed up to watch you guys bowl, I couldn’t believe how the two of you (Colleen and yourself) tried to set us up, but you did and it worked for a lot of years. It is because of you that I have made some wonderful friends, too many to name in this letter. When I was at your funeral (a week ago today) I sat around and looked at all the people who were there because of their love for you, and I suddenly realized had I not met you, I would never have met all the people who are my friends, family and who I love and adore-in the same way that I love and adore you. Thank you! Thank you…for being my friend. Whenever I see any of these people-I will always think of you! We had a lot of good times and I will cherish all of those, I will especially miss our sometimes very intense conversations about family, love, relationships, children, etc. One conversation in particular that I will remember most is when you asked for my advice on how I would handle situations when it came to disciplining a child that is not yours (You with Sherri’s kids and me with Larry’s son). I knew you were uncertain of exactly how much of a “fatherly” role to play. I didn’t know exactly what to tell you then-so I just listened. Jon, I have an answer for you now…you did a wonderful job with the children who were not of your blood and you will make a wonderful father to the child who will be. I will miss you very much and will do my best to make sure that I share my memories of the truly beautiful person you were here on earth and the angel you are without a doubt in heaven. I will miss you terribly-but I am forever grateful for the beautiful things you brought into my life.

Jonny, I meet you when you were just a boy, comming over the house with Larry and Bill. All of us can remember so many good times we had together! You were not only my friend but a BROTHER. When I needed your help you were there, no questions asked (I moved alot!). I loved our little talks we had in good times and in bad. You grew into a very hard working, loving and caring man. I have yet to meet a man with such a generous heart as you! I could see how happy you and sherrie were together. I only wish you could have had more time with your new family and baby! You would and still will be a great Dad! You were and Angel in life and now an Angel in death. I write this with a tear in my eye and memories of a dear friend/Brother. You will be dearly missed by so many friends and family!!
Love your friend/Sister,
Debbie Zorn (Odom)

What a great friend... I've known you for allot of years. We have been through allot together. I have thousands of memories with you; some good,some great, and some bad. I am grateful for all of the memories I haveof you, we sure did have fun. I will miss you so much!
You were the backbone of your family, always helping them out when you could emotionally, and physically. You were a good mentor for them, and would have been for your child. I will try to keep in contact with him/her, and tell him/her all about his old man, what a great hunter he was, what a big heart he had, and maybe even a
few story's about the girls we chased or the trouble we got into (he might have to wait till he is 21). But none-the-less, I now how you really loved you wife and new family, and how you would have loved your new child. You would have made a fine father, even though I know how scared you were to actually raise a child from scratch.
These last few week's have been very hard for me. I guess you just
take for granted every day of your life; not realizing how much your family and good friends mean till someone is suddenly gone.
I will miss you very much John Jarz, thanks for the good times!
P.S. live life to the fullest like its you last day
love your good friend,
Larry Odom

It was some time ago when my brother Larry brought home a new friend (Johnny). I barely passed his knees in height back then, but as my brother and Jon's friendship grew, so did I. It's been 17/18 years now since I have had the pleasure of knowing Jonny, and I know that he will be deeply missed by many. I will always remember him as a very friendly and humerous person that touched not only Larry's life, but my whole family. Jonny, you will always be in our hearts and forever missed!

Jonny was a wonderful brother-in-law that just made my sisters world complete. I never say her as happy as I did when she was with Jonny. He would have been a wonderful father to my new niece or nephew and you better believe we will let that bundle of joy know just what a wonderful daddy he or she had. He was also a great hunting partner that I will miss. All of our love goes out to our sister, our nephew and niece and to all of Jonny's family too.
All Our Love,

I would like to make this entry as a message to Jonny and a description of the wonderful man who chose me for his wife. I met Jonny on April 3, 1998 at Garwoods. I was out with some friends for just simply a girls night out. For those of you who don't know - I was married at the time. The very first moment that I laid my eyes on Jonny I said to myself "I'm in trouble!" He was so handsome. Instantly we clicked like we had known each other our whole life. He was so kind and soft spoken, a true Gentleman in every sense of the word. He was sincere to a fault. We danced like we had danced together a thousand times before. I fell in love with him that very first night. The next day I told my husband I wanted a divorce. Jonny was in shock to say the least. All I could do was hope and pray that he would reciprocate the feelings I had for him. Well lucky for me he did. We built such a strong and loving relationship. He was my Knight in Shining Armour that rescued me from a situation that was unhealthy. He swept me off my feet and gave me the Fairy Tale that every girl dreams of and most never even come close to getting. He took my hand in marriage just last July 3rd.(His death came exactly one month before our first wedding anniversary.) I truly was loved by him like I thought no man was capable of loving me. He was a very affectionate man and didn't hesitate to show it; no matter who was around he would still say "I Love You." His touch is what I will miss the most. It sent an electricity through my entire body. It didn't matter how rough or calloused his hands were,I still wanted them holding me. And after 4 years together I still would get butterflies in my belly anticipating seeing him. I have never loved one person as intensely as I did Jonny. He was loved by so many people as seen at the funeral last week. I can't imagine there being one person who had met Jonny and didn't instantly like or love him. He had many friends that were very important to him. It is such a tragedy that he was taken from me so soon, but I feel so lucky for the time he did share with me. I will miss hearing his voice calling me Leggs (I'm not sure how he came up with that nickname my legs aren't that great.) We really complemented each other and he brought out the best in me. He taught me patience and respect. I am so proud to be Mrs. Jon Jarzembowski and am so grateful that I have the gift of his child within me. He was a great stepfather to my kids and was so looking forward to having his first child. I will miss him all the days of my life. It is the most indescribable sense of loss that you could ever feel. My love will go on forever with all the precious memories that I have. Babe,I miss you so much and I Love You with all my heart and soul for all eternity!!
Sherri - XOXOXOX

Jonny-
My heart goes out to Sherri and your family for losing such a wonderful person in their lives. You had the biggest heart and I thank God for the memories that I have of you. Your baby will be such a joy to everyone and I know that you will be watching down from Heaven seeing your creation living a beautful life.

My dearest loving brother Jon, my
security blanket, my stength, my guidence, comforter and cofident,
also the will to live and love and
support to everything true and of
the heart! I have no idea of how I
will miss, and make it through
another day without you, your smile,
mister serios, and your srories....
will always be a tell tail..white
and running thru the woods. We shared our sorrows, worries, and
happiness throughout our entire
life, which was so treasured and
precious and unfortunatly too short.
I know you are looking down upon us
all and are very proud, although
It is soooo hard for mother to lose
one of her babies, I cannot imagine,
she felt a little better when I told
her I was not going anywhere soon, nor she, that it will be quite sometime before we are all together
again,God willing. Dad and Mom were
so fortunate to have us all, Janice,
Cynthia, Darryl, Leslie, Jon (YOU),
Jerome, Martin and Larry. Wondering
if they would ever stop or make it
9,HA!!! But 8 is enough is what I
heard and we all watched on T.V.
Our life was real and not a sit-com.
I pray for your wife Sherri,
and your baby to be,girl or boy, but
a little Jon to carry on the Jarzembowski name, with big brown eyes just like yours. Little girl
Milly Josephine will also be just as
great!Your wife and you always
looked like you were made for each-
other. I am lokking so forword to
your creatio, so I've got someone
new to spoil! Love you with all my heart and soul! Be with GOD and may
you forever rest in peace! LOVE,
Your sis Leslie....Also the millions
of others, aqaintences, a stanger on the street, or someone you just
bumped into, will always remember
that (MAN),you, through your eyes,
words and kindness will never be
forgotten. The world has lost one of the most honest, true,giving,
and grateful Man on earth, but
Heaven has received. Praise the
Lord and may Jesus Christ be with you till all eternity! AMEN!!!

To Sherry, Blake, Samantha, and baby to be- Know that you are being prayed for daily and you all are in my thoughts daily. Know that God will protect you through rough times, He is always there, as well as Jonny looking over you as your Guardian Angel. Sherri always know that the inner peace you have is God. 1st Peter verse 12-13. It was great to know that we have a strong work place and to know how much they care about you and your family. We love you!!! Steve, Tonia, and the kids.

Where do I begin? There are so many things that come to mind.....many of you may know what I am talking about. The "trips" to the junkyard, the hanger fights at The Limited, the "mean green machine" with dark green doors, ETC. PEACE AND GOD BLESS
