Jonathan Lee Kidwell December 28, 1982 – February 07, 2020 Share this obituary Send Flowers Sign Guestbook| View Guestbook Entries| Send Sympathy Card| Memorial Donation Sergeant Jonathan Lee Kidwell, age 37, went Home to live in perfect peace on February 7, 2020. He accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior at a young age and attended Sevier Heights Baptist Church. Jonathan graduated as a Valedictorian from Clinton High School in 2001. Shortly after, he joined the Army. He served three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, earning the Combat Action Badge. Like many veterans, he came home with unseen scars from the horrors of war he endured for our freedom. Jonathan is preceded in death by grandparents, Clarence and Mae Pyke, Reverend Clyde and Dorothy Kidwell, and Parley Kidwell; brother Nathan; and the men he fought beside in Iraq and Afghanistan. He is survived by his daughter, Addyson Grace Kidwell; parents, Luke and Shonna Kidwell; brothers and sister, Jeremy, Tara, and Jared; nephew and niece, Wyatt and Abigail; and a host of uncles, aunts, cousins, friends, and battle buddies. Jonathan’s battles didn’t end on foreign soil. However, he was an overcomer, who fought every day for his life and his family. Jonathan’s passion was helping other veterans like himself overcome their invisible scars. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Jonathan’s memory to Warriors Heart Foundation (www.warriorsheartfoundation.org/#donation). Warriors Heart is focused on addressing the mental and behavioral health of servicemen and women to assist Warriors in overcoming addiction, PTSD, and mild TBI. Til Valhalla, Sergeant Kidwell.
