Mar 22, 2007---Apr 30, 2025

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Jonathan Charles Patton, 18, of Olathe, Kansas. Jonathan passed away unexpectedly on April 30th, 2025. He was born on March 22, 2007, at Loma Linda Hospital in California, the beloved son of Charles and Monica Patton. Jonathan was a man of strong faith. He loved God and His Son, Jesus Christ. His saving faith touched everyone around him and made him a joy to have as a friend. As an organ donor he continues to help save lives. 

Jonathan loved to serve in volunteer ministries at Lenexa Baptist Church. He served with his dad in ministry services starting at only 9 years old, helping set up for the Sunday transportation services. He was dad’s greeter and an ambassador for Christ. When he turned 17 he graduated to parking lot greeter and was loved by so many who watched him grow up serving God. Jonathan, side by side with mom and dad, also loved serving as part of the Kanas City Rescue Mission monthly. 

Beyond this Jonathan went with dad to many work events and quickly learned to greet attendees and made product presentations for multiple companies. Jonathan was, and is, a joy to partner with. Always dad’s son, buddy, best friend, and servant of the Lord. 

Jonathan moved with his family to Olathe, Kansas, in June 2014, where he quickly became known for his vibrant personality, kind heart, and deep passion for technology. He was a devoted fan of video games and found joy in both playing and connecting with friends. He loved working at Cybership, where he made many lasting friendships, and was known for his enthusiasm, quick wit, strong work ethic, and sense of humor. He was a leader by example and left an impact that will remain after him. His work ethic was outstanding and caused him to be promoted to COO an Co-Founder of the company just before his passing. 

A dedicated and hardworking young man, Jonathan had just completed his finals at Johnson County Community College and was about to receive his GED, marking a significant milestone in his academic journey. His determination and drive were evident to all who knew him, and his future held great promise. 

Jonathan is survived by his loving parents, Charles and Monica Patton; his two older sisters, Sarah and Allyson; and his two beloved cats, Phillip and Ranger. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him—family and friends alike. 

To his sisters he will always be their little baby brother Jon-Jon the Leprechaun. Together they shared many adventures traveling and attending festivals and conventions. Jonathan was able to travel to Disneyland with both of his sisters for a magical bonding trip, his oldest sister Sarah took him to meet some of his favorite actors at conventions, and every year he would attend the Renaissance Festival with them to eat turkey legs while watching a joust. Together they dressed up in costume and had as much fun as they could. 

Jonathan was known for his caring and loyal nature, always ready to lend a hand or offer a listening ear. His memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him, and his legacy will continue through the strong friendships he built and the joy he brought into the world. 

A memorial service will be held at Lenexa Baptist Church for family and friends on May 7th, 2025. A public viewing will be at 10:00 AM. Service will be at 11:00 AM followed immediately by the burial at Lenexa Cemetery. 

Jon had a deep passion for performance vehicles and became deeply involved in the local car community. A memorial car meet will take place on May 20th, 2025, at 5:30 PM in Heritage Park in his honor. His BRZ, “Luna” will be displayed as a memorial to Jonathan. 

Rest in peace, Jonathan. You will forever be remembered, loved, and missed. Through faith in his Savior, Jesus Christ, he awaits all his family and friends who believe the Gospel.

My family and I’s hearts are saddened by the loss of Johnathan. He was always such a happy person, and even if I hadn’t seen him in a while, made my childhood brighter when I was with him and his family while I was younger. Johnathan will be deeply missed from the hearts of the Peterson family.

My deepest condolences to the family. It is a special kind of pain when a younger person passes. I cannot imagine losing a little brother this soon. Last I saw little Jon he was full of life, energy and joy. He seemed to love questioning the world around him. I wouldn't wish this kind of pain on anyone. I hope the family can come together, and be there for one another to endure these hard times. My apologies for not being able to make it to the services, I've moved back to my home state and out of Kansas. May peace, love, and joy bless the Pattons.

Chuck and Monica I can't even explain how much we love you and your family. John was an incredible young man and entrepreneur. We got to watch him grow up in the church. His heart was full of the love of Jesus Christ as he served on the bus Ministry and in everything he did. John was an incredible role model not only for his peers but for his Elders as well. Chuck and Monica y'all are incredible parents and role models for many many people. We are here for you and your family. We love you and will keep praying for you and your family. Love Jeff and Deedee Buckner

Chuck and Monica, I can’t begin to imagine what you and your family are going through. Our whole team’s thoughts and prayers go out to you. I can attest to your reference of Jonathan’s great energy. His presence at the WITS Show a year and a half ago was well beyond his years. He made a positive impact and was a fast study. It was an honor to have him as member of our team that week. Jim

What an amazing young man, but his most important decision was committing his life to His Lord & Savior. What a great time, Jonathon & his great Uncle Darrel are having as they have now both met Jesus face to face. I am praying for a peace that passes all understanding & God’s strength to help you through this loss of Jonathan, love & prayers. Geraldine (Gerry) Crocker

Patton Family My heart is shattered to hear the news of Jonathan passing. We were very close to the Patton Family when we all lived in California. Chuck and Monica were our rock, since neither of us had family nearby. Great fellow believers who we shared so much in common. May God grant your family strength and comfort through this very difficult time. Unfortunately we are unable to come to Jonathan’s celebration of life. Know we are praying for you all during this very difficult time. In Gods Grace The Peterson’s-Pete and Carol

Chas May 07, 2025

Hello.. my name is Chas and although I don’t know you personally I wanted to express my condolences for your loss. I too have experienced the loss of loved ones and it is very difficult. Something that has always helped and encouraged me is a scripture from the Bible. At acts 24:15 it speaks of a time where there will be a resurrection of those we have lost. What a beautiful thought to look forward to.. seeing those loved ones again. I hope this brings you comfort in the difficult time. Thoughts and prayers for you and your families.
