What I admire most of Jon is what he expressed "a sense of community." To me he embodies that person that understands and wants to help those in pain yet still seems to judge people by the content of their character.

[@joseespinosa3995]

Just listening to him talking with so much humanity makes me cry.

[@graytime5828]

Wow, I think Jon is the wisest musician to come along in a long long time.
