My heart is breaking for you all. No family should endure this pain.
I was blessed to have had Jordan as my student for the last year. She was a beautiful, bright, kind, generous young lady. She was a special person, who was understanding and respectful towards all of hers peers and teachers. Her smile would light up my classroom, and that light has been put out way too soon.
I know in my heart that she is a beautiful angel guarding and looking down on us all.
May God grant you the strength and the faith to overcome this immense loss.
Jordan you will forever be in my heart!

When I hear Jordan's name, I immediately think back to when she was born. All of the cousins are one to a few years apart. Jordan was the youngest one in our group of cousins on this side of the family. I still think of her as a little girl. So beautiful, a little shy and carefree. John and Cindy I love you guys with all my heart. I'm so sorry this happened. John & Julia stay strong we love you all... I will be there to pay my respects and comfort my family!

Though I never knew her, she seemed like an angel sent from heaven to your family and now she is resting peacefully in her second home. So sorry

Do not judge a song by it's duration
Nor by the number of it's notes
Judge it by the way it touches and lifts the soul
Sometimes those unfinished are among the most beautiful
