Our Fire district and community are better because of Jon. We will miss him more that words can express.”

Osborn resigned from the fire board earlier this year after he moved from the district for work purposes.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 2 p.m. Friday, Nov. 23 at the North Lyon Fire Station 61, at 195 E. Main St.

  • Jon was one of the most caring person I’ve ever had the pleasure of working for at the Fire District and knowing as a friend. Jon always wanted to make people laugh like when in CERT training he learned about IEDs. Rest In Peace my friend.
