My condolences to the family. Jordan and I were very close while he lived in Denver. I love him like a brother. May God rest his soul.
Linda, Adrian and Nathan. I am so so sorry for your loss. Jordan and I were planning to play internet bridge this fall. He was my health insurance agent and eldest son of two of my best friends in the world, Linda and Ray. He will be missed and Linda my deepest sympathy goes out to you. I know how difficult life has been for you at times. My deepest heartfelt sympathy to the family. Jim Prohs, Gering NE
Sincere condolences to this beautiful family during this time of loss. Please know you are loved and cared for beyond measure.
Jordan and I were were room mates for about a year, but worked together for about 3 years. What a loyal amazing energy he was. Always had something funny to say ( no matter how inappropriate;) and could cheer anyone up , even me . I adored him and I am soo happy he is at peace and I no longer have to worry about him. I look forward to catching up with him on the other side 🙂 wordamouth !;)
I’m just heart sick hearing about my good friend Jordan. I met him when I was living in Colorado and there wasn’t a day that went by that I didn’t think about how I thought of him as my adopted son. I will always remember him in my heart and miss him. Jordan you are going to be missed my dear friend. ??
My condolences to you and your family. Jordan or what I like to call him was my homie. He was always so caring and so sweet. Always asking about my family, my son and wanted the best for me. But not just for me but for anyone he knew. He had so many friends from SQ to other jobs, to different states and could always just make a friend anywhere he went. He was a guiding light for me but I assume for a lot of other friends and family as well. He always was smart witted, full of jokes, full of opinions, had integrity, had empathy for others, trustworthy, affirming, honest, selfless, sharp, gregarious, a pain in the butt at times, strong willed, and had the biggest heart. I will miss talking to him and bantering with him. I will miss him.
He also loved his family very much. He always said his favorite day of the week was Sunday dinners because he got to see the people that meant the most to him. His mom, his little brothers, Ashley, and his niece and nephew who he loved very very much. I know he will be missed by so many and I’m thankful to have been apart of his life.
Jordan thanks for all the great memories! May the perpetual light shine upon you! May you rest in peace.
We so very sorry for your loss! He was always so kind and friendly! It was obvious how much he loved his family!
My condolences to Jordan’s family and loved ones. I was fortunate enough to know him and shared many great memories with him. I will never forget how kind and genuine he was. Rest in Peace Jordan.
I will always miss giving Jordan a hard time about his Broncos! He will be missed and was a great person to get to know while working with him for years now. God bless.
He was a good man.
Did he leave anything to me in the will?
My apologies for bringing some of Jordan’s crass fantasy football contacts into the fray here, although it might have made him laugh. I miss Jordan very much and am thinking of him today. I know how much he loved his family, and I’m thinking of you all, too. Nate (thank you so much for helping me process Jordan’s passing) and Linda; and the whole family; it was always clear Jordan loved you all dearly.
Missing that big heart of his and his wit. It gave him great joy to make people laugh, and that was one of the most endearing things about him. His heart was invested in the wellbeing of his family and friends with a depth you don’t often see. He could be quite stubborn and opinionated, but he wanted the best for others in a fairly selfless way, and it was a humbling, simple fundamental about him. Jordan had many dimensions to him, brightened many people’s days, made life colorful, and he is greatly missed by many, who love him.
Miss you my friend.
