Obituary: Jonathan Aljets

Jonathan Thomas Aljets, age 25, was born August 29, 1995, in Carrington, N,D., the son of Thomas and Laurie (Rensch) Aljets. He left this earth unexpectedly on October 27, 2020.

Mass of Christian Burial was held Saturday, October 31. Burial was held at Carrington, Carrington. Fr. Reese Weber and Pastor Josh Froelich officiated the service. Special music was provided by Marlene Boyer, Barb Page, and Pastor Josh Froelich. Casket Bearers included Dean Schloss, Nathan O'Brien, Thomas Sauby, Bradley Erckenbrack, Michael Rensch and Cameron Karna. Honorary bearers were Jonathan's nieces and nephews.

Jonathan graduated from Carrington High School in 2014 and spent time working various jobs, meeting friends along the way. He was currently employed at Cenex as the night manager and he enjoyed interacting with the customers and his coworkers.

Jonathan loved nature and animals. He had a deep appreciation for nature and would often enjoy a drive in the country looking at the true beauty of this earth. He enjoyed the stars, landscapes, and the simplicity of the North Dakota terrain.

Jonathan's laughter, gentle soul and laid-back personality will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He loved deeply and was deeply loved by his family, who wished the best for him as he navigated life. He was a deep thinker, a conversationalist, and came to know God through reading the Bible front to back.

Jonathan is survived by his parents Thomas and Laurie Aljets (Carrington); four sisters Katie (Dean) Schloss, Violet, Elise, and Troy, Bismarck, ND, Ann (Nathan) O'Brien, Joseph, Benjamin, Hezekiah, Isaac, and Elizabeth, Britton, SD, Jane (Thomas) Sauby, Charles, Duke, Scarlett, and Pearl, Carrington, ND, and Nadine (Bradley) Erckenbrack, Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands; many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

Jonathan is preceded in death by grandparents George and Dorothy Aljets and Gene and Shirley Rensch. He was greeted in heaven by his godmother, Debbie Semmen.
