I just learned of Jonathans passing, and am very sad. I only did one show with him, but I will never forget the wonderful experience. He was an inspiring spirit, and joyful presence. He will be missed by so many.

It was not surprising to see the huge turnout for Jonathan's tribute in NYC... that was probably just a tiny portion of the number of people he impacted with his amazing generosity of spirit, talent, and love. The usher outside kept asking us if we were here for Jonathan (as opposed to some other event that evening)... we were all there for Jonathan, because he was always there for all of us... Thank you to Chet and everyone for letting us remember and celebrate him with that wonderful Tribute.

I worked with Jonathan a few years ago at Belvoir Summer School. He was a wonderful, positive person, and we had many laughs together. I was so sad and truly shocked when I read about his death. My thoughts are with Chet, and his family.

Today I was terribly saddened by reading the news of Jonathan's passing. He was someone that could brighten your day just by saying hello to you and flashing that smile. I am truly grateful for the time I worked with him and am a better dancer because of him. "Let's go bunnies."

Jonathan was a senior at UArts when I was a sophomore trying to come out of my shell. He was such an inspiration to me and always encouraged me when I felt lost around people so much better than myself. I began to understand my talents and learned to work on my weaknesses partially because of him. He will be missed and I hope he knew how much he meant to people.
