Jon later was able to pursue his lifelong passion/career of becoming a personal trainer, business owner and body builder! With the armory and bulletproof sweat. Helping others was always a part of his passion! Jon loved working out, dressing up and looking the classiest in the room, keeping his Lexus clean, his hair done and the wearing all gold jewelry. Most of all spending his time with his daughter, Anayjah Garza.  He played football growing up, enjoyed boxing and playing for the Legacy Church basketball county league. He enjoyed being out in the town giving people advice and networking. Traveling was relaxing to him.
