Jon
Medeiros
Sep 6, 1956 — Nov 4, 2025
Jon Anthony Medeiros of Swansea, known to most as Jon, left us on the 4th of November, 2025. Born on September 6, 1956, in New Bedford, Massachusetts.
Jon was most recently a builder at Hobby Lobby, where he crafted not just structures, but also relationships, memories, and a legacy that is sure to stand the test of time. He was not just a builder of physical entities, but also of dreams and aspirations, his own and those of others.
Jon had many past times and hobbies which included collecting matchbox cars, chase pieces, he loved his long rides to Cape Cod and enjoying the New England coast. He also could be found every Sunday at the Raynham Flea Market for the past twenty five years with his close friend Walter Reed.
Jon resided in Swansea, Massachusetts, where he was not just an inhabitant but an integral part of the community, always ready to lend a helping hand, share a laugh, or offer a word of encouragement. He is survived by his close friend Natasha Paradise of Swansea, and her children Kyra Love Paradise, Nicholas Roy Jr., and Raya Sunshine Raymond. His daughter Sheri Peckham of Fall River, and her children. His grandchildren from his late son Daniel Medeiros Alycia Goncalves and Brittany Sirois.
He was predeceased in life by his son Daniel Medeiros of Fall River, and both of his parents.
