Their Story
Remembering Jonathan James "JJ" Hernandez.
Jonathan James Hernandez affectionately known as "JJ", was born on June 18, 1987 to Joe and Laura, along with big sister Kalah and big brother Matthew. From infancy, JJ was the life of the party. He could make an entire room of people roar with laughter. He was a natural born leader and a man of great faith.
JJ had a passion for helping people, he would give a stranger the shirt off his back or his last bite of food without hesitation. He loved God, family, and country with every fiber of his being. He was determined for success, passionate about life, and a fanatical sports fan. I don't think he ever walked into a room and went unnoticed.
His charm and charisma drew both fans and skeptics, but in the end, everyone fell in love with him. He was brilliant and bold and quite possibly, the most handsome man to ever live, and he knew it too.
Though his passing has left the deepest of aches, we rest in the knowledge that we will see him again one day. He changed this world when he was still on it, and is still changing lives as his legacy lives on.
