Celebrating the Life of Jonathan Jemel Stone

Jonathan J. Stone, a beloved son, brother, and friend, graced this world on September 15, 1989, and left an indelible mark until his transition on December 28, 2024. As we gather to remember him, we celebrate a life filled with laughter, warmth, and unwavering love. A 2007 graduate of Redan High School in Stone Mountain, GA, Jonathan moved forward to explore what life had in store for him. 

A Joyful Spirit

Jonathan's life was a tapestry woven with shared joy. His infectious laughter and radiant smile uplifted everyone around him. His three daughters—Victoria, Summer, and Serenity—brought him endless happiness and warmth. Their bright spirits and laughter were a source of comfort and happiness, making everything feel more meaningful. Jonathan believed that the ultimate purpose in life was to live for Christ, embracing this devotion through his active membership at Rehoboth Nation Ministries Church.

Passion for Family and Friends

Jonathan loved cars for more than just the sport; it allowed him to connect with friends and family. Similarly, his passion for chess fostered connections and competition. It highlighted his strategic thinking and desire to engage deeply with others.

We honor Jonathan's memory, let us be thankful for the times shared and the lessons learned from his joyful spirit. May we carry forward his legacy of laughter and love, always finding ways to bring light into the lives of others, just as Jonathan did. His life serves as a reminder to cherish the small moments and find joy in each day.
