A funeral has been scheduled for a man who drowned in the Cedar River near Mount Vernon while trying to rescue two children he didn't know. Officials say the body recovered from the river Monday afternoon was that of 41-year-old Jonathan Paul Jones, of Lisbon. He went into the river at Palisades-Kepler State Park on Sunday evening after he heard the screams of two children struggling in the water.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
