Missed so much! / Terri Thoele (first crush :) ) Jordan, I would do anything to have one more camping trip with you. That is my most memorable camping trip ever. The day we stayed back at the campsite all day was so fun. I actually think you made me pee in my pants. There was never a dull moment with you. I was so sad to see that vacation end. Joe gave me a picture from that vacation that is framed in my living room for everyone to see. I am so lucky that I got to spend that whole week with you. I miss you bunches and will NEVER forget you!
Love you bunches! Terri
Christmas without you / Deborah Ladd (Aunt Dee ) Jordan, Well we made it thru X-mas. It was VERY tough for all of us. Your mom had to leave as it was just to much for her. We all missed you sooooo very much and things just were not the same. I don't believe they ever will be again. Know that you were in my thoughts and heart in everything I did all day as you are every day, but even more so X-mas. I gave Uncle Joe a necklace with a picture of you two at our wedding when you were just four. It said "Best Buds" on the front, because you always were and will be best buds. It is just beautiful and a wonderful memory of you for you're Uncle Joe who is missing you so terribly. Your Mom gave us a new ornament for the tree with your picture. Of course that is now and for ever will be my favorite ornament. I talk to you all the time and I hope you can hear me. I wish I could hear you. I just miss you so and don't know how to go on living without you here with us. I know I have to, just finding it difficult to. Please keep an eye on your mom as she needs you so and take care of us all. Somehow, someday, when you are able could you please give us a sign that you are ok and we will see you again. I just so much need to know that. I love you, I love you, I love you and miss you more than words can express. You were so loved and always will be. I miss you baby! Rest well. Aunt Dee
Jordan, Was just sitting here trying to download some pics onto your site, as I want your site to be the BEST!! Of course you know me, computer illerate. It 's almost X-mas and I am ( all of us are) missing you terribly. Nothing has been or will ever be the same again without you. What do we do? I just continue to keep you deep in my heart and my thoughts everyday and I pray that there is truth to the fact that I will again see you someday. That is a day I truly look forward to. I get so mad at you for leaving us, but I suppose there was a purpose, if you believe in that st uff. I want to believe sooooooo!!!! I keep waiting for you to come give me a sign. Please don't forget about me , as I need to know that you are ok and that you are and always will be with us. I love you more than anything and I am missing you sooo. Love Always and Always,Aunt Dee
I was given this poem at grief counseling and I feel it says everything that is in my heart:
There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief.... And unspeakable love.
Honoring Jordan / Deborah Ladd (Aunt Dee ) You can shed tears that he is gone, or smile because he lived. You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back, or you can open your eys and see all that he has left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see him, or you can be full of the love that you shared . You can turn your back on tommorrow and live for yesterday. Or you can remember him, cherish his memory and let him live on. You can cry and close your mind, feel empty and turn your back. Or you can do what HE would want, open your'e eyes, smile and live life to it's fullest.
Jordan Means "Flowing" in the bible Isaiah 40:31 / Deborah Ladd (Aunt Dee ) Jordan
But those who wait on the Lord shall rewew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31

Just a Note / Deborah Ladd (Aunt Dee )
Jordan, A few weeks ago we planted a tree, installed a BEAUTIFULL bench with a plaque with your handsome picture and birth and angel dates. Alot of your friends were there as they helped to make this happen and of course your family. It was a wonderful tribute to you and your life and how sooo very much you meant to so many. I believe you would love it. It seems that we can't do enough for you. Keeping your memory alive, keeping you with us, is the MOST important thing I try to do each day. I constantly find new ways and will follow up on anything I hear about. Uncle Joe misses you terribly. He got a tattoo with a cross, shaded in red, designs extend from either side of the cross, your name above cross, also shaded in red and below on either side of the cross your birthday date, and on the other side your angel date. You know how Uncle Joe felt about tattoos, so for him this was a big step. It's his way of keeping you with him ALWAYS. I'm next. I'm getting a tattoo on my leg, of what I am not exactly sure, but of course with your name, etc. I CAN'T wait!! Missing you soooo very much and loving you always. Please look after us all (Mommy needs you now so very much). You are so very loved and missed by sooooo many. My smiley, goofy baby, I miss you sooo. Love Forever and Always, Aunt Dee Close
A Love Note / Deborah Ladd (Aunt Dee )
Jordan, I can't believe the holidays are upon us and you are not here in your physical presence, but I so desperatly search for your spirtual presence. I am going to do everything in my power to make sure that you are involved in this holiday season in EVERY way. You family missses you so very much. The pain and sadness of not having you with us is almost to much to bare. I would love just a little sign from you that you see what we are doing and that you are happy with it. I hope that you are happy, making lots of friends, being with family members that passed before you and looking down on us with the knowledge of how much you were and are loved. You were the special one in our family. The one that gave your heart no matter what. Mommy is having a hard time, so if you could, please look after her and pass down some of your strenght to her. We will ALWAYS be here for you, keeping your memory alive, loving you, missing you, trying to deal with our lives without our Jordy. May God hold you tight in his arms and may you always be happy. We ALL love you and miss you soooooo much. All my love to you in this holiday season and I know you will be with us still, in some way. Loving you always, Aunt Dee Close
How do I begin to write of a Love that means so much Words cannot explain or even come close to touch The thoughts and feelings that I have today Yet and still I'll try in this poetic way
So young, So cared for, So full of life was he That his friends and family in rememberence did plant a tree A plaque was made and a bench constructed too All these thing seem to be the least that we could do
Loved by all who knew him, they were proud to call him friend We will always Love you, you will alway be our Jordan.
My Prayer For You / Deborah Ladd (Aunt Dee )
My Prayer For You
Think of me from time to time And don't have a heavy heart. Talk of me when friends you meet, So they'll remember too. Smile for me when you have a thought, Be happy with my memory. Share yourself for as you do, You're also sharing me. Enjoy yourself with happy times, It's what I want for you. Remember me within you heart, And I will go on living. Believe in life hereafter, For we will meet again. Close
My love, My heart / Deborah Ladd (Aunt Dee )
Jordan, The moment you came into the world was so special for me. I was your moms coach (by the way she says I was terrible), I cut the cord and was the first to hold you other than your mom. You and I always had a very, very special bond. You were my son. I can't describe my love for you any other way. I loved you as if I had given birth to you myself. You spent so much time with us. Every summer break, spring break, Christmas break, etc. We had a blast camping, going to the lake, float trips, fishing and golfing with Uncle Joe. I't hard for me to imagine that you will never be around here again flashing that great big smile and just being your goofy self. You never hesitated to tell me you loved me. And oh my gosh, what great hugs you gave. I will miss those hugs. The one thing I will always be able to hold onto is the last thing you said to me. You told me I was the best Aunt anyone could ever have and how much you loved me. That was the last thing you said to me, I can't ask for more than that, except the obvious. I love and miss you dearly and a day will not go by that I will not think of you and honor your memory in some way. I love you baby and always will. With love all the way to the moon and back, Aunt Dee Close
