Jon Stanford Obituary

Stanford, Jon Mark

Jon Mark Stanford, Physician Assistant-Certified and a four-decade parishioner of Holy Name Cathedral, was originally from Wilmette and for many recent years a Gold Coast resident. He was the son of Mary McLendon of Glenview and the late James O. Stanford, Sr.; the brother of Candace (George) Browne of Tucson AZ, James Stanford, Jr. of Boulder CO, the late Lindsey (Gary) Petersen, and the late Robin Smith. In addition to being a godfather, an uncle, great uncle, and cousin, Mark was a very good friend to many people. Our hearts are broken that his larger-than-life smile will no longer be seen in person. Visitation Monday, August 29, 2022 from 1:15 p.m. until the time of the 2:30 p.m. Funeral Mass at Holy Name Cathedral, 735 North State Street, Chicago, Illinois 60654. Both services will be held in the Cathedral. Interment private at Calvary Cemetery, Evanston, Illinois. August 29th is Mark's birthday: on the same day the Lord gave Mark to us, we return him to the arms of the Lord. For further information please call 312-421-0936 or www.michalikfuneralhome.com.
