Jonathan "Jon" Purdy

Jonathan "Jon" Purdy, 32, beloved youngest son of William D Purdy Sr. and Sandra J Purdy (Toth) passed away on June 21, 2024.  He is lovingly remembered by his brother William Purdy Jr, sister Alison Purdy, and his one and only, Fatima Khattab.  He will also be lovingly remembered by many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Growing up in Thornton, IL where he took a great liking to the outdoors with skateboarding and fishing.  He had all the poison ivy to prove it.  He would make his famous recipes or create something new. He loved helping mom and dad, especially the big projects with dad.

As Jon got older, he took a liking to building and upgrading his computer.  When he was outside, he would work on his car.  He loved fixing broken things.  This would later extend into the healthcare profession where he would care for the elderly.  This is around the time when he met his one and only love, Fatima.

Jon attended St. Ann School in Lansing, IL and graduated from Luther East High School in Lansing, IL.

Throughout his life, he loved trying new things.  He was an exceptional bowler.  In his free time, he would be gaming on the XBOX and PC.  He was an animal lover.  He grew up with his dog companions Brandy, Aqua, and Blaze. Later, he cared for 3 cats with his one and only and, most recently, 3 baby kittens.

Jon was a wonderful, unique, selfless person who will be missed by us all.
