Jonathan was very adventurous, and lived life to the fullest. He was always there for others, "Jonny on the spot" and was the first person his friends would call, if they needed help. He was affectionately called by his friends "The sophisticated Bear", he was loved by all.
His hobbies were UFC Wrestling, collecting guns and doing desert runs with his jeep. He loved music and had a big collection of guitars. His favorite thing was to make people happy, and his favorite colors were black and red.
He is survived by loving parents, Darrell Barksdale and Deborah Schmidt; his siblings, Heidi Mann, and Joshua C. Barksdale; and his goddaughter and niece, Sienna Clark. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.
