OBITUARY
Since learning of Jonah's death on May 20, 2020, nothing feels real. We have lost a guiding light in our family and it is unclear how we will now navigate the path ahead. We know nothing will be the same. We want to move forward with Jonah's spirit in mind--with love and loyalty, humor, kindness, confidence, passion and a commitment to living life to the fullest. He followed his heart and did not let anything get in the way of his...  see more

    It breaks my heart to read these wonderful tributes to a very special young man and how I wish they were not necessary.

    I knew Jonah for several years as one of his coaches and hopefully a mentor too but he will forever have a place in my heart.

    As I...  more

    Jonah was a classmate and friend to Kate since preschool, but I didn’t personally know him well until their junior year. I have always felt that how a person treats animals speaks volumes about what is in their heart. It was Jonah’s love of our dogs...  more

    Jonah had a light that shined very bright and radiated humor, kindness and inquisition.

    I have many fond memories with him and his family. A distinct one that keeps coming to mind is getting to go on back to school trips to the Burlington mall with him...  more

    As a teacher at Falmouth High School, I knew of Jonah before ever meeting him. His reputation as a brain, an athlete, and a socialite made an impression on everyone in school. Despite not having him in an actual course, much of his non-academic time was...  more

    Jonah and I were friends in elementary school. We were the only two kids in our 2nd grade class that had seen Little Miss Sunshine (maybe don't ask our parents why : ) and I know that I took pride in sharing that with him. I remember that once when he...  more

    At the start of junior year of high school I found myself extremely anxious/depressed, largely due to the fact that I was alone at home for the first time. Jonah had just started his freshman year at USC, and I was lost without him, and I am now feeling...  more

    I knew Jonah as Maya’s little brother. Over the years, I saw Jonah grow up and go off to college. I had the privilege of seeing him at USC. I could see how much he loved his school and friends. He came to visit Austin for the football game, and he met...  more

    When I think of Jonah I think of his family. I feel so lucky to have grown up with the Spiegels and seen some of their best and worst moments. No matter the situation they always come out laughing. Many people are lucky to have experienced it, but I...  more

    I would always get excited whenever Maya’s Cute Brother was coming to visit her at college. It was something special to be in a room together with those two and to witness the sibling love. Jonah will be missed by so many 💗

    In November I went to visit a friend from high school at USC and I will never forget the conversation with my mom as soon as I got to the airport. I felt the need to call her to tell her how impressed I was with Jonah after observing him in his new...  more

    I'll never forget the weekend Jonah, Erin, and I clowned around in Santa Barbara. We ate great Mexican food and Jonah played with Gracie the whole time. I remember thinking so vividly how fun loving Jonah was. He could have been with any of his friends,...  more

    Jonah was my little brother, but he was so much more than that. He was my best friend. Everyone who knew him knew how close we were, and I am still so grateful of how protective he was of me. This past February, I flew out to California to visit both of...  more
