Services will be held on Saturday, March 3 at 11 am at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1500 Country West Road, Bismarck. Visitation will be held at 10 am prior to services. Burial will take place at the Fairview Cemetery. Jonathan was born July 7, 1995 in Bismarck to Daniel and Debbie Billings. Words cannot describe the joy this young boy would bring to his family’s life. Jonathan was diagnosed with cerebral palsy in 1996, but that didn’t change who he was. He did everything with his family. In his early years he enjoyed camping and fast boat rides with his dad. He had a great love for music, whether it be high school band or singing to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, he loved his music. He enjoyed spending time with family by the fire pit in the backyard. He attended Centennial Elementary School, Horizon Middle School and graduated from Century High School. He will be greatly missed by his parents, siblings Tayler (DeAnne) Billings, Bismarck; Lindsey (Christopher) Rugg, Mandan; Robert and Jeffrey, Bismarck; grandparents Robert and Nancy Billings, Mandan; Lorette Aamodt, Rugby; aunts Vicki (Derek) Woidyla, Karen (Chad) Hunt; uncles Stacy Aamodt, John Billings, Peter (Stacy) Billings and Robert (Janelle) Billings; three nieces, Emily, Dorothy, Charlotte Rugg; several aunts, uncles and cousins; and special friends Todd Zentz and Tracy Kuznia. He was preceded in death by maternal grandfather Marvin Aamodt.
