Jonathon Lee Sapp

Jonathon Lee Sapp, 27

Poland: On Saturday morning, October 8, 2022, our beloved Jonathon, 27, of Poland, Ohio left this earth and entered the gates of Heaven. Jonathon was the beloved youngest son of Larry Sapp of Deerfield and Debra (Craig) Fisher of Poland. He also leaves behind sisters, Rebekah (Adam) Gibbs, Kristen (Paul) Frazzini, and Ashlee (Zachary) Baer; brothers, Stephen (Mallory) Sapp and Jordan (Michaela) Sapp; stepsister, Lindsey (Matthew) Fisher-Hunt; and stepbrother, Rob Fisher; nieces and nephews, Mason, Gavin, Peyton, Emersyn, Kohen, Eli, Barrett, Shepherd, Bella, Nico, Wyatt, and another one on the way. He also leaves a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. We can’t think of a single person that Jonathon met who didn’t immediately call him friend.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Lloyd and Jane Sapp, and Harold and Carol Fahnestock, along with many aunts and uncles.

Jonathon was a 2014 graduate of Struthers High School and a 2016 graduate of MCCTC with a 2-year degree in Culinary Arts. He was employed at Kennsington Grille where he worked as a busboy for 4 years.  In 2018, Jonathon fulfilled a lifelong dream of working at Cedar Point. In 2020, Jonathon fulfilled his ultimate dream of operating the roller coasters. He most recently worked as a cashier at Giant Eagle in Poland. Jonathon had an incredible work ethic and found great joy in working as a cashier. He had a tremendous bond with his co-workers and built friendships that existed even outside of work. He had many repeat customers in his checkout line because of the kindness, joy, and love he shared with everyone he encountered.

Jonathon loved the Lord with his whole heart, he loved his family, he loved people, he loved roller coasters, worship concerts, and he loved WWE. His laugh was infectious, and his hugs were legendary. We have and will continue to learn so much from Jonathon’s testimony and life, especially his unconditional love. He shared his love for others and passion for life freely, always inviting others to join him on his next adventure. We don’t think we will know until we get to heaven just how many people our sweet Jonathon touched.

He was a member of Heritage Presbyterian Church where he served faithfully as a Deacon for over 4 years.  He loved serving the members of his congregation.  He sang in the church choir on a few occasions along with being a Lay Reader and usher.

We are devastated in losing Jonathon, but we will forever be thankful for the 27 years that we got to have him. Thank you, Lord, for Jonathon. We know he is now worshiping with his arms raised high at the feet of Jesus and we are comforted in knowing that we will one day be with him again.
