Skating Home:Honoring Jonathan O’Brien Life&Legacy

Service Date TBD: will update once that is finalized

Jonathan was the kind of person who made everything better just by being present. His laughter was infectious, his love unconditional, and his kindness limitless. He had a heart of gold and always put others first. Showing up with a smile on his face no matter how tough life was. A true gentleman and a scholar.

Jonathan did not just live life - he devoured it. Whether he was out on the waves surfing, cheering at a hockey game, lifting at the gym, or exploring a new place, he lived life with passion and heart. Jonathan lived with a fire that inspired everyone around him, and now somehow, that fire is gone.

His sudden passing has left a hole that no words, no amount of time, and no gesture could ever fill. The silence without him is unbearable, because people like Jonathan don’t come around often, and when they do, they change your life forever.

This GoFundMe is about honoring someone who gave so much love to this world and expected nothing in return. This fundraiser will help give him the proper goodbye someone like him deserves. If you knew Jonathan, you know what kind of soul we have lost. If you didn’t, we wish you had.

God Bless,

Your brother DJ
