Jonathan Schwabe Obituary

Lynn, George & Jordan (Prancer & Damian too),



I can't begin to tell you how sorry I was to hear of Jon's passing. My thoughts are with you & your entire family during these especially tough times. May you take comfort in the fact that (altho taken way too soon) Jon departed this life at a time when his life was still filled with possibilities and not the pressures & disappointments of age & infirmity.



My love to you all - D2

Dear The Schwabe Family,

My thoughts and prayers are with you, during this tragic loss. Jon was a good guy.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Schwabe and Jordan,



I am very sorry to hear about John's death. I have thought about him every day since I heard, and remembered those things about him that made him such a good person. John was such a strong person, but had a very gentle demeanor. Mr. and Mrs. Schwabe and Jordan, you will be in my prayers.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Schwabe and Jordan,

I'm so sorry about your loss. I hope you can take some comfort in knowing what a great guy Jon was. Jon was so kind to everyone, and could make anyone's day better with his smile. He will be missed so much. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Mr. and Mrs. Schwabe,

I was deeply saddened when I learned of Jon's passing and wanted to let you know that you are in my prayers everyday. Jon was a good friend and brother who I played football and worked out with on a regular basis. His presence and sense of humor will be missed. Please stay strong during these tough times and God Bless you.

Sincerely,

Cory Crossetti

Dear Mr and Mrs. Schwabe, Jordan and Family,

I am extreamly sorry to hear about your tragic loss. I wasnt friends with Jonathan but I am good friends with Jordan and had seen Jon on occation. He was such a nice guy and it is so hurtful to see such a young man leave all of us so soon. My deepest prayers go out to you and your family. My God be with you during this hard time...Jonathan is watching you from the stars above. God Bless.

Lynn, George and Jordan,



You have been in my thoughts all day today. I can't begin to imagine what a sad day this must be for you. I'm sorry I was not able to attend, but I'm sure you were surrounded by your family and friends.



Love, Janice

Our deepest sympathy to you all at this very difficult time. In particular, Kevin always enjoyed coaching John in baseball. He certainly was a asset to the team (no surprise). Danny called us last night from college to talk about John. He always liked him and admired his many talents not only as an athlete but as a person. John loved you all very much. You were wonderful parents and a terrific brother to him. May God embrace you all and give you strength. The Gallagher Family

Dear Mr & Mrs Schwabe



I didn't know Jonathan, but I was at the funeral home last night for another wake, when I saw the long lines I knew this had to be for someone young.. I know how you feel, I lost my 22 year old son Brandon and his long time Girl Friend Sarah on Dec 28th a few weeks ago there car hit a tree avoiding a deer.. My heart goes out for you .. there is nothing worse then the loss of a child .. with so much ahead of them.. I just want to tell you .. just take each day slowly .. it does get alittle better.. maybe Jonathan, Brandon & Sarah are now new Freinds

Dear Schwabe family,

Baseball, Football, Kairos - I always knew Jon to be a fun-loving person. He had a welcoming heart and I thank him for my memories. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our deepest sympathies, heartfelt prayers, and fondest memories go out to you all. From the early years at OLPH and the Cub Scout activities,through the years of sports, and onto the collrge years and all the parties inbetween,we are thankful for the miles of smiles that we traveled with Jonathan. His warm embrace, rosy cheeks, and enthusiastic hellos were always given freely and genuinely whenever he would come over to the house. We will always miss those and many other cherished moments but will be forever greatful to God that Jonathan and your family have always been such a part of our lives. We will pray for you and Jon and will always thank God that Jonathan was there to make us smile and to share his life with us.

Mr. and Mrs. Schwabe & Jordan-

I would like to send you my thoughts and prayers in this terrible time. Although I hadn't seen Jon in a long time, I will never forget that smile that was always on his face, the countless hours he would spend at my house with my brothers (Ross and Ryan) and of course, the times I would babysit and be taken on bike riding adventures all around Glenview!

He will be missed by so many, but left us all with great memories.

Mr. & Mrs. Schwabe,



My prayers are with you and your family at this time.

My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family in this time of crisis. I went to Drake with Jon and was in the same pledge class as him. Although I only knew Jon for a short time he made a lasting impression on me. I don't think anyone will ever forget his smile.

To The Schwabe Family:

I am so sorry for your loss. May G-d be with you in this difficult time and help to ease your pain.

Gloria Clay,

Jon,

I know you're out there somewhere reading these messages. You loved and were loved be so many and it's tragic that your gone but, for the short time you were here with us you brought so much joy and happiness to myself, your Aunt and godmother Joy, and were a role model to both our kids (your cousins) Nick & Madeline. Our lives will be forever changed without you. We love you and will miss you very much. Jerry, Joy, Nick and Madeline.

P.S. Next time you sign us up for a 5 mile Diabetes walk, make sure you show up!

John had a good heart and an old soul. He will never be forgotten. Why do such good people leave us so soon?

Great friend to have in life, John will be missed by alot of people, and he will be a great guardian angel to have.

Mr., Mrs. and Jordan Schwabe,

My favorite memory of Jon was his good humor! No matter what you would say to him he would laugh and smile. We had the best time at Loyola with Mr. Samorian's senior year English class. Everyday the boys in the class would try to form a pyrimid. On the last day of class the guys achieved their goal of all staying together w/ out the pyrimid falling. I took a couple of pictures that day and even though he had so much weight on top of him in all of the pictures Jon is the only one laughing. I will pray for you and we will all remember the special times we had with Jon.

my deepest sympathy to Jonathan's mother, Lynn. My prayers and thoughts are with you. May your faith and love continue to surround you and your family at this time. always, donna waldron and family

To the Schwabe Family,

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Schwabe and Jordan,

You are in my prayers and thoughts. I don't think I played one year of baseball without playing with or against Jon. He was a great person and teammate. Again you are in my prayers.

My prayers are with you and your family. I have a son the same age as Jon. I remember Jon when he played Little League.....I remember we played against his team one day at the fields near Greenwood and Lake. We were playing on the field near the concession stand...Jon hit a home run that not only cleared center field but landed near first base on the next field on the hill!We talked about that homerun for days. I will pray for you and your family that you may find the strength to persevere through all that you face. My heart goes out to you.

i am truly sorry to hear of your loss, jon was a wonderful person and will never be forgotten. my thoughts and prayers go out to you, god bless.

We are so very sorry for the loss of Jonathan. He was so full of life and was such an inspiration to all. He loved to laugh and have a good time and I think he encouraged everyone around him to do the same which brought so many people happiness. Someone told me that some stars shine so brightly, however they do not shine for long, but because they were so bright they will be remembered forever. Our thoughts and prayers are with you always.
