Help with a young father's funeral expenses

Donation protected
Jonathan's children meant everything to him. His unexpected and tragic death has left them without a father and with a difficult road ahead. Please help with any size donation and his employer will match up to $5,000.


Ozzy Gray is four years old and Jillian McKenzie is 20. 


Ozzy's mother is in school and was dependent upon Jonathan's income to support Ozzy. We want to bless his family with the money to cover his funeral expenses so that any funds that would have otherwise been spent on that could go instead to his children. 


Jonathan had a profound effect on his co-workers at BugBros Pest Control, which is why we created this GoFundMe. Jonathan began as a customer of ours and loved our company so much that he became our first salesperson. He was the first point of contact for most of our customers and he received dozens of 5-star reviews because he so genuinely cared for everyone he talked to. He wasn't just selling pest control - he was giving peace of mind to families 


Anytime someone needed help, he was there in an instant. Whether it was to step in for a sick colleague or to help cover the phones on the weekend, he always volunteered without complaint. 

But he was so much more than just the best employee. A number of us moved to Tulsa within the last couple of years without knowing anyone, just as he had. Jonathan quickly became the closest friend to many of us. He was the kind of guy that you immediately fall in love with and feel like you've known forever. His continuous focus on self-improvement was an inspiration to all of us. And his infectious smile and sense of humor always left the room just a little brighter. 


He was so genuine, kind, and caring. And nobody received more of his love than his children. As committed as Jonathan was to his work, it was always a distant second to his family. He lit up every time he talked about his kids. He wanted nothing more than to give his children a wonderful life with a secure future.


We want to honor Jonathan by helping ensure that Ozzy and Jillian have the opportunity at a better life. They deserve the bright future that he so desperately wanted for them.

Whether you can spare $20 or $200, every bit counts and is very much appreciated. Jonathan's mother will be in charge of final expenses. Funds are needed by Monday, February 15th.
