Fan WritingStories, page 10Last weekend my best friend and I reminisced about childhood crushes. Jonathan, you immediately came to mind. My bedroom was plastered with posters of you from Teen Bopper and various other teen celebrity mags. I religiously watched SeaQuest DSV every week and made it a point to watch your movies. I admired your talents and career, combing over every article I could find to learn more about you as a person. I was not only "in love" with your characters, Lucas being my favorite, but with Jonathan the person. The memories flooded back to me that afternoon and filled me with a sense of happiness and curiosity. (I lived in the US at the time.) I was shocked and disheartened to find out you had decided to end your life four years ago. I'm sorry you found yourself too enveloped in darkness to see the light of those who surrounded you and loved you. I was once in that dark place so I understand, but I wish you had been strong enough to know you had so much more to give to the world and those who loved you. I wish you had the strength to love yourself and courage to keep your life going. Jon, your spirit will live on in my heart and in the hearts of all your family, friends, and fans. You will not be forgotten. God bless. Contributed by Jessica Finley-Boyle Sydney, Australia I was saddened to see that Jonathon had died. I was going through the pictures of people would had died young and saw him. My heart jumped and I am deeply saddened. I had no idea that something had happened to him and it makes me feel guilty honestly for not knowing what had happened. Honestly, I don’t remember hearing anything about his death on the news or in the papers. I was a huge fan and I had a big crush on him. Watching his movie, Ladybugs was such a joy to me because I had to of been in Jr high and to see his beautiful blue eyes made my heart melt. Granted, I had a few crushes with actors when I was younger. But I do remember having His picture up on my wall. He is very much missed and I am very sorry again to hear of what happened. Contributed by Mindy Kramer Arizona Humans relate to each other, humans can connect with each other. We all recognize what it is to go through the agony of losing someone we truly loved. Jonathan died in 2003, seems like forever. However, the agony of losing him is still fresh. I have been having dreams of Jonathan at the point of his death and having his friends there, getting to him before the chair fell, yelling please don't let Jon die. That is another way of what I feel inside. How do I find some relief? Praying. Coming to the site and writing in the members section of writing to each other. Life is very fragile. Peace to all, Memories Contributed by Joanne Kelsey
