Don't worry about it. One very heartfelt condolence from a non-English speaker once said that she hoped he had found the "peach" he was looking for. The sincerity is the important thing. Thanks for remembering.

How was Jonathan's personality in general? Just curious since your his friend 🙄

[@jonzfriend]

@@finiuswideman8974 Took a while to get back to you. (Internet issues...) "No light that was born in love can ever be extinguished" is a quote from Darcie Sims, on a meme someone at the old JB.org created (in the video.) "Ka-le-phe, bu-tse-po" is Tibetan, from my novel, "Go in peace, beautiful boy" .

RIP Jonathan

[@josemiguelmarquescampo4902]

I must say, a very nice tribute to +Jonathan Gregory Brandis. The touching piano music is quite appropriate. Dear Lord, please forgive his untimely death. Hold Jonathan close to your Heart, and love him...

[@jonzfriend]

Thanks for dropping by and for remembering. Amen, sir.

[@josemiguelmarquescampo4902]

jonzfriend, oh sure, not at all. I love films and TV series. And from time to time I look up the lives of actors/actresses. And when I discover how young actors died way before their time, of course it deeply saddens me. Particularly so if by taking their own lives. From what I've read about +Jonathan, it seems he suffered from depression. Possibly due to worries about his acting career. I know of him only by "The Never Ending Story II" and "Seaquest." But I did enjoy his acting. I think he was good and very expressive of his roles. Whatever his reasons, and certainly the friends he must have had, I regret that there wasn't anyone sufficiently close to him when he most needed someone. Or maybe that he hadn't reached out for help. I'm so sorry. From all accounts, he seemed a friendly, kind-hearted young man. God most certainly will count that in his favour. Did you by chance know him personally? Thank you for your heartfelt tribute.

[@spawn760]

Amen indeed

I cried watching this. The world hasn't been the same since he left us.

I couldn't believe it when I found out he had died. He's one of the very few people who touched my life without ever setting eyes on my face. I will never forget him - all the long years of my life. I will never forget.

I wish some how I could bring him back. I don't judge him for committing suicide, I just wish it never happened.this was a special gifted person,even after death, that is why I pray God sends him my love 💝😳

[@JazzFan76]

@Tom Evans Same

[@JennyLong-nj5xe]

I would never have judged him either, cause he was depressed severely & couldn’t see straight! But he knew it wasn’t the answer to fixing problems, but like I said, being severely depressed & worried, he let go!!! 😢 I also wished it didn’t happen! If I had known he had problems with depression, & struggled & if I knew how to get a hold of him thru his fan base, I would’ve written him back then & try to talk all this down so hopefully he’d still be here with us!!! 😢😢😢😢 💔

[@alexkx8599]

Such disturbing music. Hauntingly beautiful though.

[@jonzfriend]

Disturbing? That's an interesting way to put it. I chose the piece because, at the time, it was the only one that said what words couldn't in a gentle way. It's going to be twenty years soon since he left us, and maybe the fact that this still elicits responses says something about the legacy of the man himself. I still can't watch it objectively. Thanks for dropping by and remembering. I appreciate it.

[@aliciaanne]

Jonathan is loved by so many. I am so sorry for your huge loss. When I heard the news he passed, it hit me hard and I didn't even know him. I just knew him through his movies. We can all see that he has a beautiful soul. He was a fantastic actor and I'm blessed that he chose to share his talent with the world. I know he is in Heaven now, completely happy and at peace. I'll be praying for Jonathan, his family, and his loving friends Always. ~ In the end my friend, we will all be together again~

What a beautiful video and you brought tears to my eyes. He was my first celebrity crush and the only one I've ever written a fan letter to. I hope he's finally at peace.

[@solasluna192]

I just think this guy needed better friends and company. In many photos with him and his friends I have seen on the internet, it was always a party atmosphere...drinking, messing around, looking wasted, smoking. Perhaps if he would've had mature and responsible friends, they could have advised him to seek help for his depression and other mental issues. He deserved better people around him. 😞💔

[@jonzfriend]

He and his friends were 'twenty-somethings' in a party town, and no one thought badly of it. It's often what you do in Los Angeles, whether you are wealthy and famous or not. He didn't use drugs - he was terrified of them, even Tylenol. He DID like to drink (a lot) but that's what guys in their 20's do. His friends were as stable and mature as most people that age would be (and, of course, as mostly actors, were a little self-centered) - but they missed the cues he was giving them, that things weren't what they seemed on the surface. Jonathan was, above all else, an impeccable actor, and his act of normalcy and happiness was almost perfect. Inasmuch as we can, we need to absolve his friends and family of any blame for his death. They just couldn't - and didn't know. No one did.

Te cuento algo sobre jon que me parecio increible. En una biografia sobre el decia que su gran descepcion era que fue rechazado por las mujeres que a el le gustaban. Esto me parecio bastante raro tratandose de alguien tan atractivo y ademas famoso en ese tiempo. Yo jamas lo hubiera rechazado a el. O tal vez esas mujeres tenian mal gusto o solo se trata de una mentira. Nunca lo sabremos.
