San Diego Union; June 9, 2009 Jon Anthony Pukatch, beloved son of Selma and the late William Pukatch and brother of Alice Pukatch, passed away May 7, 2009, from complications of type 1 diabetes after battling this disease for 47 years. His family and vast network of friends will miss his mischievous smile, dry sense of humor, superior intellect, and compassion for others. When he was well, Jon lived his life to the fullest and when he was ill, he was courageous in the face of adversity and never ever gave up or felt sorry for himself. We know he is smiling down on us with his ever present cool demeanor. We will miss and love you always, Rest in Peace.
