The first time I met Jordan was in 6th grade when I didn´t have any friends who were nice or supportive. But when I met him, he was one of the most kindest, funniest people I had ever met. We were both were quite the trouble makers in middle school as well, always joking around, never taking class seriously as much, and were just being stubborn. He always took risks, and was never afraid of trying something new. He had even encouraged me to step out of my shell once or twice. Before I transferred schools for 8th grade, the last time we ever hung out was at a sleepover at my house. We stayed up all night eating popsicles and wrestling. I wish we had still kept in touch more after that. He was my best friend, and he always will be.

Jordan was one of my best friends since freshman year. If I ever need help or a shoulder to cry on he was there. Not a day goes by that I don´t think about him. He was the funniest and sweetest person I have ever met.
