We deeply mourn the loss of Jonathan Juniel, who passed away on December 5, 2024, in Kansas City, Missouri. Born on July 24, 1976, Jonathan was the beloved son of Orlandus Juniel and Bertha Starks. He was the cherished husband of Morgan Gaines, with whom he shared many happy years of marriage since 2014.

Jonathan was a loving father to his four children, Lillian Juniel, Chelsea Juniel, Clarissa Juniel, and Tiffani Juniel, all of whom he shared with his spouse Morgan Gaines. His family meant everything to him, and he was a devoted husband and father.

Jonathan studied at Bearden High School and graduated in 1994. He continued his education at Columbia Trades Center and graduated in 2017. He had a successful career at American Steel Manufacturing and was well-respected by his colleagues.

Jonathan had a passion for basketball and swimming, and he enjoyed spending time engaging in these activities. He had a zest for life and was always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need.

Jonathan Juniel's untimely death is a tragedy that has left a void in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. He will be greatly missed, but his memory will live on in the hearts of his family and friends.

May he rest in peace.
