Jon was a wonderful colleague and I always enjoyed his presence.
My deepest sympathy to Jon’s family and my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of sorrow.
I have only known John a short time but as a new comer to the DEP Building he made me feel welcome. sharing his expertise in gardening, it was a pleasure to meet such a positive person. My sympathy goes out to all the family and friends in this sad time. As he like to say as he walked by the desk ” wendy, hold my calls!”… it will be my pleasure!
thoughts and prayers with you all!
One day after work, I found my car’s ignition system failed. I was attempting to fix it but had neither a ratchet nor the particular socket I needed to fix it. Jon asked me what was going on when he was leaving for the day through the same parking garage. I explained what was going on and what I was doing. He offered to go home and get the ratchet and socket I needed. I didn’t want to trouble him and I asked him not to. He insisted and went anyway saving me a lot of trouble. That was how I met him. He was a nice guy; friendly, good humored, and happy to help.
Sorry for your loss.

My condolences to the family. Jon always brought my Mom, Jean Loper, fresh vegetables from his garden when he lived in N. Warren. When he was small he liked when we would use our finger to draw tic-tac-toe on his bare back. Always stopped by when we came home for a visit. You will be missed my friend.
Brenda and family, I am sorry for your loss.
I was saddened to hear of Jon’s passing, he was a great guy. I always admired how he always gave 100% to all he did & he usually did it with a smile & a joke. Over the years I have called him my boss, then my college, But always my friend, he will be truly missed.
Jon, I’ll miss ya buddy. I’ll especially miss our oilfield talks. Godspeed brother.
Brenda
We are sorry for your loss. We are thing of you and praying for your family.

To the family of jon scott, I’m sorry for your loss I worked with jon in the early 80’s in the oil field with ipsco , and would see him from time to time and we would always catch up with each other on what was happening in our lives, he had a good since of humor and always a smile on his face , he will be truly missed. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.
My deepest sympathy and prayers for the family of Jon Scott. May The Lord Jesus comfort you with the certainty that you will meet again! I first came to know Jon 45 years ago when we were in the same Algebra class in 8th grade. The following year Jon and I were permitted by our teacher to conduct independent study in Introductory Physical Science (IPS). We learned a lot that year conducting various experiments in the lab room at Beaty. We even managed to escape serious injury, although I did get my hand stuck in a vacuum pump belt one day. Another day we took apart the drain on the lab sink, and removed numerous glass tubes and other debris that were clogging it. Jon had a great sense of humor and was a great lab partner. I last remember seeing Jon 15 years ago at our 25th class reunion. After reading his obituary and all the prior condolences, I am reminded of what Jesus said in Matthew 25:21, “Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.”
I am so sorry for your loss. You are all in my prayers.
