As colleagues, and as friends, we are deeply saddened to learn about the passing of Alderman Jonathan Brostoff.
Jonathan was a loving father and husband, and greeted everyone he met with empathy and kindness. He was also a passionate advocate for the betterment of our community, and dedicated his professional life to the people he represented. It was an honor to have served in office with him, and he will be missed.
Out of respect for his family, we would ask that they be provided the privacy and time to grieve that they most certainly deserve.
