VEA Delegation Remembers Honors Jonathon Kite

Members of the Virginia Education Association were shocked and saddened when they learned of the death of Jonathon Kite, a member of the Loudoun Education Association.  Jonathon was expected to attend the 2019 NEA Representative Assembly and had raised over $500 for the NEA Fund.





To honor his memory, each first time VEA delegate to the NEA RA received a pair of "crazy" socks; Jonathon was known for wearing fun and crazy socks or bow ties. 


Also, the VEA/NEA convention planning committee of Afreen Gotee and Joy Kirk announced they would reserve a seat in honor of Jonothan and encoraged delegates to place crazy socks or other mementos at his seat.
