Well, it's June10, 2024,ONE(1) YEAR, since the day of your Funeral, haven't heard word one about your Burial, baby, neither did our 3 kids.

Our youngest son, Samuel James got in & is working at PHNSY!! ... Missing You... the big, bad wolf, Melissa

     JUST LIKE THAT(snap!),
      YOU DISAPPEAR(ed) !!
I SO LOVE&MISS YOU,JON..     
        Melissa

My deepest sympathy over your lost.  I first meet Jonathon when the shipyard did SRA's on SSN 637 class subs at sub base.   We enjoyed fishing off the barge during lunch time, and he was always quick to bring laughter into the conversations.
The last five years of my career, I became very close to Jonathon working on second shift with him.  He was so dependable and gave up home live to support the shipyard, holding over or working the weekends.  He was very knowledgeable on hydraulics.
I am really sad I could not make it to his service, I would really like to have supported him one more time
Aloha, Jonathan, until we meet again.

My condolences to the Jonathan Spencer Ohana .  I known Johnny for  a long time.  We both worked in Shop 38, he worked in 38M6 section &  I worked on the waterfront.  My fondness memory of him when we both was selected to go on sea trails after the boat completed repairs.  It was only 3 days but it was so much fun making each other laugh.  He was so much fun to work with & we became good friends.

I remember after many years later he mentioned to me his son was coming to work at PHNSY .  I remember he was excited his son was going to follow his footsteps.  Then later I found out his son worked with my younger brother Glenn Tarrant at Air National Guard what a small world .

I know for a fact the shipyard will suffer a big loss.  I will deeply miss him my dear friend Johnny.

Well,Jon..Your. Day is approaching to Celebrate..YOU,and I still have mixed emotions,that I have,more like,still coming to terms about losing you ...I think,no,I have a heavy heart,still,that feeling for me,will live on NO MATTER WHAT..they say Time Heals All Wounds? Hah! Don't believe that,unless anyone who goes through what were ALL GOING THROUGH...ITS SO UNFAIR,Babybut Each&Every minute,I'm  Missing& Holding On to the memories we shared..I LOVE YOU,FOREVER YOU WILL LIVE IN MY HEART!
..Melissa...

Jonathan was one of my best working technicians at PHNSY. He always made friendship number 1 
His mechanical abilities and positive communication made him extremely liked and supportive from all PHNSY employees.
Jonathan’s  Positive workmanship ,communication, and knowledge made him very respected by All.
Sincerely we will all miss him  Be extremely proud of his history!

IH,Jon, I'm finding I'm Missing You Even More& More Each&Everyday..they say it gets easier? Ya,right.NO..The time was going fast,now its dragging,so more thoughts of you/ us/ Our family& friends go swirling around my mind,sometimes making me believe that you are still here on Earth,but I know better...I guess when you truly Love& Cherish that Special Someone ( YOU,JON), The More You Do Imagine Them There,Right Next To You...ALWAYS & FOREVER
                       I LOVE YOU,

Today is June1,2023( wed.), Well,All I Ask Of You,Jon,Is,Can You Give Us Some Kind of A Sign..We pretty much  Need A Sign of Hope,when all else seems Hopeless?!not everything,mind you ...me: the Other .....!?!

Well,baby,Your funeral is coming up fast..I wish ..ONLY IF...TIME COULD/ WOULD STAND STILL( just for ONE more day... That would have been MY LUCKIEST DAY OF ALL TIME,except,THAT ONE DAY WHEN I FIRST MET YOU,my LOVE.  U will forgive me,if I don't attend( I do wanna come,don't get me wrong,baby) but I still feel that my place there will upset some people who may or may not know of me/ us/ kids,and for that reason,I will stay home. Please don't judge me .   I love you,eternally...
