Glenn and I met Jon years ago at Praise Fellowship. I went to a Bible Study he and Audrey were teaching. I was so excited about it, that I told my husband Glenn he had to come with me! He came the next week. and we never missed after! Glenn ended up hitting it off right away with him. He was a baby Christian, Jon mentored him, and taught him soooo much in the word, and what it was to be a Godly man. We love y'all! Audrey my heart is with you, and Jon and Glenn are worshiping Jesus in his presence together!

It has been a long time since I have seen Pastor Jon in Sheboygan. He was such a great teacher of the Word of GOD! My condolences to Audrey, Glenn and Steve and family. He will be greatly missed.

I moved from Sheboygan and wish I would have come back to visit their new church or them at their home. Audrey would invite me over and we had the most blessed time and talks. He also helped me to get things started for a podcast testimony talk show. I still haven't started it yet but when I do it will be in dedication to Jon in my heart. He had great wisdom that he loved to share and he and Audrey were very special to me. They helped me through a hard time in my life and I will forever be grateful.

Pastor Jon and Audrey helped raise me up to know the Lord. Through Pastor Jon's indepth teaching of God's word and commitment to helping the broken hearted and Audrey's love and compassion they helped me from the very first day I met them at the Tomah Assembly of God, when I was 14 yrs old (1991).
