Jordan Bruce Brockbank, a beloved son, brother, grandson, uncle, and friend, passed away peacefully on August 24, 2025. Jordan was born on December 14, 1989, in Provo, Utah, to Bruce Rich Brockbank Jr. and Lisa Carman Brockbank. As the first child and grandchild, Jordan brought incredible joy to the lives of those around him.

He is survived by his loving parents; his three younger sisters, McCale Little (James), McKenzie Brockbank, and Ashton Johnson (Skyler); and his paternal grandmother, Jeanne Ann Denny Brockbank. Jordan was deeply loved by his extended family including aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews, all of whom adored him.

He is preceded in death by his grandfathers, Bruce R. Brockbank Sr. and Thomas R. Carman; his grandmother, Kathleen Carman; and his precious niece, Lennon Sky Johnson.

Jordan graduated from Timpview High School in 2008, where he played on the golf team and discovered a lifelong love for the sport. That passion led him to Riverside Country Club, where he worked for 16 years-starting as a bag boy and rising to the role of Assistant Golf Professional under mentors Robert MacArthur and Chris Moody.

Jordan joined the Boy Scouts of America at a young age, embracing the values of service, leadership, and personal growth. Through years of participation, he earned numerous badges while ultimately completing the requirements to achieve the rank of Eagle Scout -a milestone that reflected his character and determination.

From 2009 to 2011, Jordan served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Oakland and San Francisco, California. His faith and dedication were evident in the way he served others and built lasting relationships.

When Jordan returned home, he began his college studies at Brigham Young University and later continued his education at Utah Valley University. His passion for golf led him to enroll in the Professional Golf Management (PGM) program, where he refined his skills and deepened his commitment to the sport. Over the years, Jordan became a favorite among his students and fellow golfers-not just for his expertise, but for his easy-going personality, patience, and genuine love for golf. He had a remarkable ability to connect with youth, especially through the Jr. Golf program, where his mentorship and encouragement left a lasting impression on countless young players.

Jordan enjoyed serving in the Young Men's program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. His natural ability to connect with youth made a lasting impact, whether he was teaching Sunday lessons, sharing stories around a campfire, offering tips about golf or refereeing a spirited basketball game.

Jordan's life was filled with simple joys and meaningful moments. He loved camping under the stars at Strawberry Reservoir, fishing with his dad, early morning tee times with his golfing buddies, and online gaming with friends and family. He was a passionate sports fanatic-loyal to the Utah Jazz, a 'True Blue' BYU Cougar, and he never missed a chance to cheer on his beloved 49ers team. He also enjoyed spirited political conversations and was a proud supporter of Making America Great Again.

Jordan was known for his infectious sense of humor and quick-witted one-liners-a gift he inherited from his beloved Grandpa Bruce. His deep love for family and friends was evident in every interaction, and his presence brought laughter, warmth, and joy to every gathering.

His absence leaves a hole in our hearts, but we know his spirit lives on-in the lives he touched, the lessons he shared, and the love he gave so generously. Jordan will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege to know him.
