Jonathan Tuttle, Journey: Our Chance to Give Back

Class of 1984 Portland and Deering High Schools. Living in North Deering Area

This is Ron Vance trying to help out a dear friend that we all adore and look up to. Jonathan Tuttle has touched a lot of lives over the years. Now it is time to help him out in a time of need.

Former classmate needs our help!!

As most of you know, Jonathan Tuttle was valedictorian of Portland High school class of 1984. He also attended Lyman Moore Middle School until 1980.

Jonathan has suffered through TWO different types of cancers! In 2021-2023 he was able to defeat prostate cancer. He just completed his second round of cancer treatment; This time was for cancer of the spine in the thoracic region,

Jonathan left his former job in February of 2024 to take a couple of months off before starting a new job in the spring. Little did he know at that time that cancer was creeping into his spine.

The recurrence of cancer brought with it a new challenge of mental health issues! He has not received a paycheck for ten month . At this time, he has spent the majority of his saving and much of his retirement money as well.

We are hoping that you can join our efforts to support him at this time of his life, any participation would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Ron Vance, Deering High School three years and Portland High School class of 1984
