It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of Jonathan Stanko, a beloved member of the @ionauniversity and @IonaGaels family and class of 2014 alumnus.
Jonathan dedicated more than a decade of his life to the athletic department, leaving a lasting mark on our community and the countless lives he touched. His kindness, unwavering dedication, and infectious spirit will forever remain a part of who we are.
Cancer is a cruel and unfair opponent, but even in the face of this challenge, Jonathan's courage and resilience inspired us all.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends, and all who knew and loved him. Jonathan, you will always be in our hearts. Rest in peace.

Booger McFarland on ESPN: "Nobody is concerned about football right now. America is concerned about one thing: The health and safety of this young man." Says flatly this game should be over. Amen.
