To Joyce, Judy, Linda, June, Gary and all Jon's family,
How sad I feel reading about Jon's passing. I never knew him as an adult but remember him as a baby when you all lived across the street from us on Montgomery Street. He looked like a fun loving guy. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathy to you all.

I will always remember the fun we had as kids growing up in Ilion, NY. Division, Montgomery, Shull, Prospect St & Barringer Rd. Always meeting at the corner of Division St and Montgomery St to see what we were all going to get into or do for the night. I remember snow sliding behind the school bus when it dropped us off and all the fun we had as children. You will be greatly missed Boob. You touched all of your childhood friends and I am sure those that met you along the way. Eggie

RIP Jon "Boob" Backman from all your childhood friends in Ilion, NY. Your personality and smile were contagious and I am sure everyone you met along your path of life was as lucky as we were to have you as childhood friends. You will be missed.
