Help Jon's family with day to day expenses
My name is Michelle Lane and Jon's wife, Allison, is my cousin. I've set up this GoFundMe me in hopes of easing some of the day-to-day financial burden Allison now faces in the wake of Jon's passing.
Allison's sister, Steph, is also accepting freezer meals for the family to get them through the next several weeks.
- Enough to feed 3
- No veggies, onions or mushrooms
I will put her contact information below.
Thank you so much for your thoughts, prayers, good vibes and any donation that you are able to make.
Jonathan W. “Big Jon” Peters, 38, of Oelwein, died Saturday, August 14, 2021 at MercyOne Oelwein Medical Center. He was born December 10, 1982, in Boone, son of Robert J. Peters Jr. and Michelle J. Whitaker.
Jon married Allison Lane August 25, 2012 in Waterloo. He loved fishing. His dad took him often when he was a child. He liked to catch bass and walleye but did not care as long as the fish were biting. Teaching his kids to fish was a was gift he passed on to them. He adored spending time with his family. In the last year, they acquired chickens so the family could have fresh eggs. Everything Jon did was for Allison and the kids. He told EVERYONE he was the luckiest man alive because he had the best wife and the best kids. He loved the Kansas City Chiefs and was a lifelong fan. He enjoyed using his smoker and griddle. He enjoyed entertaining. If you left his home on an empty stomach something was wrong.
