It is with great sorrow that we share the news of Jonathan’s passing 🕊️ John and his wife Sharla are our loving landlords and were the first to believe in Fredericksburg Natural Baby. They offered us much more than just their building; they shared their lives with us. John was a caring man who always wanted to hear about our day and our families, took care of us by making sure the lights were on outside for our late nights, offering his patio for our numerous parties and book readings, sharing his parking space so we could move product in easier, offering protection when we dealt with potential danger, invited us to his home for parties and parades and more. He was more than our landlord, he was apart of our team and our family. For the longest time, we would enjoy chatting with him in his garden or on his way out to walk his beloved Luigi. We could feel the love he had for us, because he showed it so freely. His passing has left a whole in our group that we feel daily.
We will be closed tomorrow, Monday, September 8th to honor everything John has done for us. We will be attending his funeral service and reminiscing on the gift we had in our Iives for almost 11 years. John and Sharla were the lovebirds everyone hopes to be years after being together. Please join us in praying for Sharla and their family ♥️ We know Jonathan and Luigi are together again 🙏🏼
