the book of jon

This blog is a tribute to a son, a fighter, a friend, an inspiration, a symbol of hope, a scion of unflinching determination, a child of the world who has touched so many of us in so many ways. This is for you Jonathan Byron Gan.

Remembering Jon









“If you want guarantees in life, then you don't want life.
You want rehearsals for a script that's already been written.
Life by its nature cannot have guarantees, or its whole purpose is thwarted.”
Neale Donald Walsch

We remember Jon today as he turns 21, and celebrate his 5th Continuum.

As you light this candle, let its color remind you of an innocent love in its purest form.
Let its light shine in memory of a sportsman, a scholar and a gentleman.
And a son who lived his life to the fullest without knowing what tomorrow would bring.

Jonathan Byron Gan 26 July 1990 – 9 August 2006
