Jones, John Paul One year ago today my precious son took his own life. I can't imagine the pain he was feeling. It breaks my heart. He was a loving son, father, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend. John Paul was an incredibly talented man.

His presence will forever be missed. In memory of John Paul tell your children how much you love them. Hug and kiss them daily. Be involved in every aspect of their lives. Look for any signs of sadness or depression.

I Love you John Paul with my whole heart. Until we meet in heaven. Mom. Martell-O'Donnell, Mary Hey Mar, It's been 1 long, heartbreaking year since your journey to Heaven. I can't tell you how much you are missed.

Love, Mark McDonald, Sean Though it seems like only yesterday, it's been a year since you've been gone.

Yet we can still hear your laughter through the house and in our hearts, as it will forever. We love you Sean and miss you so. Your Family. Moore, Nicole "Nikki" It's been a year since you've been gone. Yet we still struggle every day with the memories you left behind.

We remain strong with all good times we shared knowing that you are in a better place. With Love from your Family.
