Today I found a couple of things which reminded me of Jordan while cleaning up some boxes from high school and college.
I always remembered Jordan even though we weren´t close, his energy and happy-go-lucky demeanor was unforgettable and he just stood out in a great way! Everyone couldn´t help to notice him and would always walk away from every interaction with him with a smile, he touched all the lives he crossed and left a warm and loving impression on all of us. Jordan I were classmates in Mrs Helms English class in High School and I vividly remember his smile and infectious happy energy. He truly was a wonderful person and such a blessing to be around. Thank you for watching over us in heaven, and thank you for having been on our lives. We will never forget you Jordan

Happy Birthday My Sweet Jordan……
It’s still quite difficult as the days go on to accept that you’re not here
The pain is overwhelming and at times too much to bear
You must be so proud of the accomplishments of your Brother Blake
Thank you for watching over him and keeping him healthy and safe
One day I’ll see your smiling face when I join you up above
Till then I send you lots of kisses, hugs and all my love
I love you, miss you, honored and blessed to be your Mother.
Thank you Jordan for being such a wonderful and loving son.
Always & Forever,
Mom

Jordan,
Tomorrow will be one year that you have been gone. I can hardly believe it. It is so hard to believe that it has been that long that I have seen your beautiful smile, and felt your warma and loving presence. You were amazing, I miss you so much. To jordans family I can not imagine your loss, but know that he was loved and and that he is missed, and constantly thought about.

If I could have a lifetime wish
A dream that would come true
I’d pray to g-d with all my heart
For yesterday and you
A thousand words can’t bring you back
I know because I’ve tried
Neither will a thousand tears
I know because I’ve cried
You left behind many broken hearts
And happy memories too
But I never wanted memories
I only want you
I miss you my sweet Jordan.
With love always & forever,
Mom

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SWEET JORDAN
Your Birth 18 years ago brought so much happiness & joy
I held you in my arms; you were my 2nd baby boy
Then through the years I felt such pride as to a young man you grew
So happy, kind and thoughtful, beloved by all you knew
You gave everyone love, respect and hope for the future yet unknown
But g-d came for you that fateful day and took you to his home
You can not know the pain I feel, the utter black despair
I wish that I could hold you but you aren’t here
To wish you “Happy Birthday” is what I want to say
But how can it be happy when you have gone away
To see you smile and sparkling eyes and hear you laugh is what I want to do
It would end this grief and ease the pain and the heartache too
One day I’ll see your smiling face when I join you up above
Till then I send you lots of kisses, hugs and all my love
Please watch over all of us, especially Blake your brother
Thank you Jordan, as I feel blessed to be your loving mother

Valarie, I cannot express how deeply sorry I am. I can say so much about him right now, and I swear with the experiences that my brother and I went though with him, I can write a book about nothing but great things to say. If Jordan was in the thesaurus, I would read things like "inspirational", "talented", "good humored", and above all a "friend". I wish we would've talked more. The last time I spoke to Jordan was back in 2001 and that was when we just moved to Michigan. I remember how we use to sit in my house and it would be Mike, Devin, Stacy, Ashley, and couple of others wearing football jerseys and watching horror movies from Blockbuster and eat Papa John's pizza. We formed the "Horror Jersey Club" that day. I also remember the short film we made "The American Working Man" and how quick, fun, and fullfilling it was to engage in a production like that. I think that's when Jordan decided he wanted to be a filmmaker. In a way, I sort of inspired him, but in the process, he has inspired me to pursue my dreams as I'm sure he had the same affect on everyone else that knew and loved him. Jordan IS the brother I never had, and I will always cherish the good times and I will always know, call, and acknowledge that Jordan Bradley Carver is the epitome of all that I ever wanted to be.
Bronco Willington III, you got a place in my heart...

It's been 6 years since we lived in Florida, but I know my sons still have great memories of time spent with Jordan. Valerie, thank you for picking up the phone to let us know. Looking at his photo online just now, my first thought was what a handsome young man. I always thought Jordan was pretty special and I see from this guest book that everyone knew it too.
Having him in our home was just like having another son in the house. God bless you all, may your memories of Jordan ease the pain in your heart, for I know he was nothing but a blessing to you.

Jordan It's now the 18th of september and there has not been one day that has gone by that i have not thought about you! To the family of jordan i just wanted to say that he was a great person and i know there is nothing i can do or say that can take the pain away but you guys are in my prayers and of many people that you don't even know or don't know you .And the pain will never go away and trust me I know that but the things you have to do is when you are fealling down or feal like you wish you could have gone with him , You the people that he loved the most have to think what Jordan would have wanted you too do ,he would not want you to be crying or sad and i know that Jordan loved his family soo much and he would not want to see you guys like that so when you are feally bad just talk to him he can here you!!!!really my pain is with you and i will keep praying for you and for all!! may god bless you all and help the pain start to go away and for you to think of the good!!!

It has now been 37 days and 888 hours since you’ve been gone. I have been writing for weeks in the hope that with every thought of you I could find a source for healing my own broken heart. Although I find great joy in my memories of you, the pain of your death is still too much to believe. I find myself visiting the places you and I used to go, remembering the simple things that made us both smile. It is with this in mind that I chose to say that the Jordan I hold dear to my heart is the private Jordan. The quiet boy who liked to take in as much as he could from the place where he was at, in the time he was given. Jordan, you gave me so much more than I could have ever given you in the short time that we had together here. I believe I had a small piece of you that you held close to your own heart, your sense of who you were becoming and how you fit into this world. You shared some of the most difficult moments of your life with me. You and I, we could cry and laugh together in the same conversation. I remember we always ended our conversations with “but why?” and I guess we never did get the opportunity to answer all those questions. You made me swear that what we talked about stayed between me, you and God and I promised you then, that it always would. I will always remember your hugs after those long talks in the summer of 2002. You had the gift of resiliency Jordan. You changed before my eyes from the beginning of the visit to the end.
We did some major road trips from South Florida up the entire east coast to Maine with Uncle Gary, Brent, Arielle and Dov. I remember the time you saw your very first lightning bug one summer night here in Virginia and you didn’t want to come back into the house because you wanted to catch all the bugs in one night. I gave you a jar and you filled it up with all those bugs and then you opened the lid and let them all go free. You said, “Hey Aunt Lori, it’s all in the game that counts”. The next night you waited for dusk to come and out you went to catch the new lightning bugs all over again. I also remember the time in the Pocono Mountains when you saw the deer come right up to the porch door. You were so silent and intent on not frightening them away.
You shared your love of Judaism with all of us here in Virginia. You had a temple family here that all loved and adored you. You read Hebrew and lit Shabbat candles on the bimah in temple, you sang, you prayed and, you ate at Oneg. One Shabbat Rabbi Perlin arranged all the chairs in the sanctuary in a circle and did a sermon on the Shema. When services were over you told me that you would say the Shema everyday forever because it was so cool the way Rabbi Perlin explained its meaning to you. We made your favorite Shabbat dinner of grilled salmon, baked potatoes and broccoli with challah every Friday night while you visited. So why did the entire middle of the challah always taste the best Jordan? We all knew the middle of the bread had your name on it!
This past October Uncle Gary and I renewed our wedding vows and your mom told us she was coming up to Virginia to help celebrate the occasion. She told me that her wedding gift to us was kind of big and wasn’t sure how to get it on the plane. I thought that was odd as “what could be so big”? When I went to the metro station to pick your mom up I was looking for her and out of the blue there you were! So tall, tan and handsome. You came running down the sidewalk, and when we hugged we both cried and cried. Your mom just stood there watching and said, “I told you your wedding gift was big didn’t I”! You were the most amazing gift of all. Everyone was so surprised to see you.
Your death has shattered our lives and there are times that are unbearable for me personally. I seek comfort in the things that remind me of you. When I am out in the evening I look up at the night sky and want to believe that you are in every shinning star in the heavens up above. I want to believe that you are in every breeze that blows through the air and in every song that the birds are singing. For me, you are everywhere I go, in everything I see and hear. On the trails that we hiked, in the streams that we stood in and always in my heart. As the Spring begins to change to Summer here the nights begin to warm I am reminded of you as the lightening bugs are flying at dusk, and when I see the deer in the meditation garden at the temple where all of us have chosen to create a place in your honor. I think of you every Friday night when I recite the Shema. We all know that you are a gift from God, your light and energy will never dim for we will forever hold you in our hearts, honor your name in our daily life and say Kaddish for you every Shabbat. Messages from God are everywhere as is your spirit. Sometimes it’s just a whisper and sometimes not. Your presence is all around after all, You’re Jordan Carver and “It’s All Good”. Shalom my sweet Jordan, Shalom. I love you.
Love,
Aunt Lori

When I think of Jordan, I think about how much he made me laugh, all the smiles he put on everyone's faces, and his true talent to glow. I remember meeting him in 9th grade only wishing that I would have known him longer. He's one of those kids that everyone knows and comes to love. I looked forward everyday to my guitar class and science class to see what Jordan had up his sleeve this time. His comedy influenced all of his friends, including myself. One of my fondest memories of him is one of his trademark sayings, "Baybah", so I liked to call it. And ever since he first started to say it, every day after I'd ask him if he could say it which would make me laugh uncontrollably.
This passed year, though Jordan and I saw less of eachother, I would not walk by him in school without either saying hello, doing our little handshake, or reciting my favorite saying, "Baybah!". I miss Jordan so much that I still can't comprehend he is gone and our of our lives. I will never forget his little smirk of a smile or his piercing green eyes.
Thanks Jordan for the times you've given me.
Love Always,
Marla.

Jordan was one of a kind. I knew him since 1st grade we shared some great memories together. Jordan was seriously the funniest kid ever. Big J was an awesome kid to be around I always had a good time with Jordan. Jordan was a huge supporter for ACE, a skateteam I'm on with 7 other kids who were all friends of Jordan. I love ya a miss ya a lot Jordan and our video will be done in June just like i told ya..i know you'll be there with us watchin it at the premiere...peace bro

It wasn’t supposed to be this way. We were going to have you for so much longer. There were so many things left for us to do the next time you came to see us. Camping along the edge of a legendary civil war battlefield soaking up the history that we loved, it came alive through your eyes. I remember you and Brent and I standing (nervously for me) on Jefferson’s Rock high above the Shenandoah River at Harpers Ferry. “Come on up Uncle Gary, I won’t let you fall……” Gettysburg, Antietam, Manassas -- you absorbed it all with eager curiosity. From monument to monument, museum to museum, story to story...I learned history all over again by experiencing it with you and Brent and Arielle. Watching the History Channel with determined fascination (Your Aunt Lori said we only liked things in black and white as she prepared your favorite salmon for you). Off to the football game to watch Arielle cheer—you charmed all the girls and made instant friends with Brent’s buddies. You were the ambassador to everyone.
Gliding across a New England sea where we watched great humpback and finback whales flirt with our boat as the salt spray covered our faces. Kayaking across Booth Bay to visit an old War of 1812 rampart and travel back in time. Listening to you play the guitar at night coaxing from it the wonderful sounds in your heart. Listening to you tell a boy’s stories and talk of your dreams…..watching you grow.
We miss you Jordan, terribly. Our hearts are broken. Everyone who knew you, whatever their differences, could find common ground in their love for you. In the years ahead I will think of you when I feel the salt air on my face and hear a young man’s song. I will remember you as forever young and when I think of the things we did together I will smile and say, as you would have, “It’s all good”. So long Jordan….until we meet again.

Dear Valerie and Blake
Even though I didn't get to see Jordan everyday, or month or even sometimes year, I still felt like we were really close. Jordan could make me laugh, even by doing nothing, he was just that kind of a guy. He was a special guy, a loveable guy, and one people will never forget. He made such an impact on so many peoples hearts, for me, it is just so incredible to see that. I don't know very many people like Jordan, or if any. He was one heck of a unique person, who brought so many qualities to the table with his personality. What amazes me is that, even though I only got to see Jordan a couple of time, I feel like I know so much about him. He will always been in my heart, as well as you guys. I have so much love for you guys and Jordan.
With love,

I know it was hard for all of you to loose someone as special as JORDAN, but you know you really haven't lost him because he is in your hearts and all around you, and he would never leave you feeling alone or by yourself! Ever since elementary school I always knew he was a good person inside and out. Even though he is no longer with us now, there is a piece of him in ALL of our hearts, keeping us feeling all warm inside. Whatever you guys need don't be scared to ask, I'm here for all of you! WE LOVE YOU JORDAN! (don't you ever forget that)

It took so long for me to sign your book because the truth of it all wasn't real to me but day after day for the past week, driving into Pierpointe, not seeing you on your skateboard, not seeing your smiling face and your friendly wave as I past by in my car has brought the truth more into focus. Life could be so unfair and sometimes so hard to understand but one sure thing is that you are loved and greatly missed. T.J is watching over Blake, I'm there to help your Mom. "Its all good" as you would have said, well, as good as it could be. Love always Mrs. "D"

Dear Valerie,
Although I have never met you, I know how great of a mother you are. It truly shows in Jordan. He was always so sweet, and always had a great smile on his face.You did a wonderful job raising such a great son. It was hard to comprehend at first why he would be taken away from us, but Heaven needed an Angel like him. Thank you for sharing Jordan with us, and he will forever be remembered through his smile, humor, and bright outlook on life. I'll never forget when I met him, I was in 8th grade, and he was in 7th. Everyday after school I counted on his big bear hugs (but would not recieve them untill after we were done play argueing) We all love him, and I'm so sorry for your loss.

Val, your are a suberb mother, Blake, I wish I had a son as wonderful and caring as you. We love you both and will miss Jordan. Next time we come to Florida I expect a great big bear hug and a kiss from Blake, thats what Jordan would have done. TO Jordan, Play your guitar loud so we can hear you. We love you and miss you, watch over all of us, especially Mom and Blake, they need your support, life will go on but you will be truly missed. With all our love.

I have not seen you all in so long. Last time I saw Blake and Jordan was at Passover after Nana's passing. My heart and prayers go out to each of you. I realize no amount of words can describe the pain you all must be feeling. My prayer is that God will be with you during your time of healing. Jordan will forever leave his presence with us. He sounds like he was an amazing young man with lots of love and creativity to give to the world. You will keep his memory alive forever. God bless. With lots of love, Shaunie, Aaron and Jacob

Jordan & Val,
Jordan was the greatest most vibrant person i have ever known.When i first met Jordan he was such a character, and he was so well known to everyone! I am so happy and blessed that i was able to meet Jordan, because he always knew how to make everyone feel better, and he just always had his big smile stretched across is face. I will always remeber Jordan as someone who was laid back, and could always say "It's all good" and i guess that's all he would want us to say now, instead of being upset and crying. He probably just wants us to celebrate his life and not his death. Whenever i feel like just breaking down and crying because i know i'm not going to see Jordan walking through the hall everyday or sitting at my table during breakfast, i just say, "Heaven just gained an angel." I just wish i took advantage of the time that i had with him and sat with him a little longer, talked to him a little more, and spent more time with him, because i feel that i didn't get as close with him as wanted to!!!And i miss, well,i hope that Val can, in time, overcome this obstacle, because she does have all of us to care for her. I miss you Jordan, we love you!!!

Thank you for sharing your Jordan with us. Because of Jordan's gift, this world is a better, kinder more musical place to live. Every creature Jordan touched has the ability to spread his love and joy of life unto others. They too can feel the warmth of his smile, the gleam in his beautiful eyes, the gentleness of his heart, the charm of his wit, the love for his band/music, but most of all his deep appreciation and strength of friends and family. May you all find the internal strength for the future knowing Jordan's life filled so many. YOU are all good Jordan!

Jordan was one of the brightest and funniest people that you'll ever meet. Jordan was the kind of person that everyone knew. He brought smiles to everyone's faces. He was loved by everyone that knew him. Now I know you haven't lost something or someone until it's too late. Jordan might not be here physically, but he will always and forever remain in our hearts. I know that Jordan is in heaven right now and he's watching over us and making sure that we're okay. My condolences go out to the Carver family and friends who are suffering through this aweful tragedy. RIP Jordan. You will be missed by all. You will never be forgotten.

Dear Rodger & Gayle, Valeri & Blake,
I have not been a part of your lives for a very long time, but our family ties still remain in my heart. I remember Jordan as a child and the last time I saw him was when Nana passed away. Your Uncle Kenny has always shared all of the wonderful things about your family. Especially being able to spend time with Jordan & Blake. Although I feel that God has taken Jordan too early, I know that He has a purpose and plan for him in heaven. Even though we are far away, it saddened us deeply, (Adam & Shaunie Carver (Jordan's Cousins)Our prayers and our love will cover you in this time of grieving. Rejoice in the life that Jordan had here, he is now in his eternal home and we will see him again in glory and from what I have heard, he'll be playing music on our arrival.
May God's Comfort and Blessings be With You and the family.
Aunt Judy (Carver)Finnie, Adam & Shaunie Carver and families.

Jordan was one of the funniest kids I knew in my entire life. I know that he made everyone smile whether he knew you or not. I miss Jordan and will never forget the day he left us. He was an inspiration to all and I'll be happy to see him again some day. I had him in many of my classes including guitar one which was where I met him. lol I remember the day he went across the street to Albertson's to get his eyebrow pierced, it looked awesome! He made me an instant friend and this will make it harder to let go. I just wished I could've said goodbye..."Every step I take, every move I make, every single day, everytime I pray I'll be missing you..."

Dear Rodger,Gayle & Blake,
Jordan was an amazing and unique individual with a style and class of his own. Thanks to you, our wonderful supportive family and friends. We will get through this difficult time. I was so proud to be his Aunt and loved him with all of my heart.I would be honored to be a part of his scholarship fund at Flanagan Highschool to make a dream come true. The art of music was so important to Jordan and so many other children. We need to make it happen! He will be soarly missed. "Let The Music Live On "J" I will never stop loving or remembering you.
Thanks Family and Friends,
Aunt Lisa

Jordan was and will always be a funny, terrific, and bright kid. I've never seen Jordan frown or get upset with anyone, niether did Jordan fight. Jordan would always calm you down or make jokes just to see a person laugh. He is and always will be loved and adored by all that knew him. Jordan could never stop talking about his mother and how much he loved her. Ms. Carver, I sincerely hope that you know how much your son loved and appreciated you. My deepest sympathies are with you and your family.

I'm sorry to say that Jordan has passed away. My first year at flanagan high school as a junior from another state, Jordan came upto me with a smile that showed he was there to help, and there to be a friend. Jordan has shown over and over again how smiling is the kindest act anyone can do without saying a word. He was always happy, and whenever I was down in class, he made me happy. I honestly can't believe he's gone now physically, but in my heart I know he's still here. I will never forget Jordan. May God have him in his glory.

I guess you could say that Jordan was one of those people who touches your life with him even kowing it. We shared 1st hour together in American History and I was just amazed at how easy life came to him and how he was able to enjoy it. I will remember him for his intelligence but more so for his genuine concern for others and his ability to brighten up any situation. I really hope that he knew how much he touched people, how much he was cared for, and most importantly that he will be missed but remembered for his loving personality and gestures ten fold. You really don't know what the phrase "words can't describe", until you're put into a situation or event that you actually can't describe and losing Jordan is one of those events sadly. To jordan's family, hold your head up and celebrate his life because that is what he would want. And to you Jordan, the only thing I can really say is you will be missed. Good-Bye friend.
RIP Jordan

Jordan was one of the best friends anyone can ever have. There are so many great stories attatched to his name. He was the kind of buddy who was there when no one else was. he made me laugh on countless occasions and he helped me get through some hard times. I never thought someone as close as Jordan could leave us so abrubtly. This is a tremendous loss for us. god bless you.

Valerie, Blake and Family-I cannot find the words to express my deepest feelings for your sudden and tragic loss. Jordan is a special person and will be in all our hearts forever. The few times I saw him he would hug me like we knew each other forever, his smile just made us all feel good. Jordan we will all miss you so much, but you are in a better place. You will never be forgotten. Please take care of your Mom and Blake from heaven above. You are special to me just like your Mom is to me. I love you, Val and I'm here for you always.

To Jordon's Family:
I met Jordon because of my puppy OREO. If all the kids were out on their skateboards when I would walk her for some reason OREO would first run to Jordon. I would tell him "I think OREO has a crush on you". That little dog would see him from a distance and run like crazy to get to him for some love and he always stopped to spend time with her.
It was clear that it was love and happiness that Jordon gave to people and pets of all ages. Oreo and I will truly miss this fine young man. God just got another Angel!

Jordan touched everyone's life that he came in contact with. He brightened people's days with his smiles and attitude. Jordan was contagious, passing on his smile and laughter. Everyone I know, loved him with all of there hearts. We all have stories and memories of him, none of them negative. I know your up there watching and smiling over all of us, you'll protect us and be there to guide through all of our troubles throughout life. Just know that you will never be forgotten, Never!
We all love you

I'll always remember Jordan as the kid who was always making people laugh, and wore a constant smile. His beautiful personality shined through his smile and eyes. I regret not having kept in touch with him, but my memories are still there. He's watching over everyone now from a much better place. i'm so sorry that his family or anyone has to deal with something like this.
RIP Jordy. <3

I didn't find out about Jordan's death until today and I'm still in shock. I've known him since the eighth grade and he was also so smart but funny at the same time. His death is a tragedy and he will forever be remembered and missed. He was very popular with everyone at school and was a happy-go-lucky guy.

Dear Valerie,
Words cannot describe the way i have felt after the loss of my dear brother Bruce nearly ten days ago and now with the loss of your son Jordan. I only have very fond memories of Jordan as his smile lit up the room and his hugs went right through me when I would see him. My heart is aching right now and even though I'm here in Jersey, I'm there for you in spirit. Chad, Mitchell, and Gaby also told me just this evening that they are so very sad and their hearts are aching as well. If there is anything I can do for you, please reach out to me and I'll be there. Warmest Thoughts to you and Blake. David

To the Family of Jordan,
My children and I want to express our sympathy and prayers to each of you. Jordan was a young man who was a role model for the younger children of Pier Pointe teaching them how to ride their skateboards and always friendly to those children who looked up to him. May God bless you and may you find comfort in knowing that your son touched the lives of others in our community.

I remember Jordan from the time we were little kids in Pembroke Lakes Elementary School. When I heard what had happened I could not believe it, I always remembered Jordan as an amazing friend always doing whatever he could to help others or make others feel better. I'll always remember Jordan as being a great friend and always doing whatever he could to make the world a better place. Rest In Peace Jordan. To the Carver's and the rest of the family my thoughts are with you.

Jordan was a true charmer.
Everyone immediately fell in love with him.
He was the boy who kept chivalry alive.
Who made everyone smile.
The happiest & most positive person I knew.
A boy wise beyond his age.
It’s such a tragedy that he’s gone, but somehow I believe he was ready.
He lived his life to the fullest, no regrets, and always having a good time.
It’s comforting to know that he’s in heaven now and I know he would want us to be happy for him.
He was an awesome musician and we'll keep on jammin for Jordan.
You are forever loved Jordan.

There really isn't much words that can express the feeling of such shock and something so totally unexpected.One positive thing is that no matter what when I think of Jordan, or put a picture of him in my thought there will always be that great beautiful smile. He was never upset always happy, silly, and making jokes. Jordan was a great person and will be missed. My prayers are also out to his family- remember he is in a better place now :) and may he rest in peace.

Dear Carver Family,
I want to express my deepest sympathy and sorrow in your loss of Jordan. I fondly remember the young teen student, but didn't get the chance to know the young man he had become. Perhaps you may feel comfort and peace in seeing and hearing Jordan in the faces and voices of those who knew him. At the very least, remembering Jordan will make us smile.
...Peace be with you.

Jordan befriended my son Danny walking home from elem. school and they have been friends ever since. Their birthdays were only days apart. He was so sweet and funny and always paid special attention to Danny's little brother and even though I was just his friend's "mom", he always made it a point to come and talk to me. He was a standout and I love having him in my home. We will miss him. Kowabunga Jordan, you always made us smile.

Jordan was the sweetest, nicest most caring and wisest person I’ve known. He always had a smile on his face that made you feel so happy to know him. I remember he even played a couple of songs for me on a guitar just like I said to make me happy. I know he is up in heaven right now playing his awesome reggae music to all the angels with him. He would not want us to be upset that is why we need to remember about all the memories we had with him. The most important thing is never to forget the lovable and funny JORDAN BRADLEY CARVER. WE WILL MISS YOU ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!

Jordan was a very awesome dude, and he always put a smile on my face no matter what. He was one of the greatest parts of everyone's lives at Flanagan, and he will thoroughly be missed. Words can't even begin to describe how shocked I am for us all to have lost such a wonderful friend.

We've known Jordan for two long, crazy years. He was the greatest "ghetto jewmacian"=), Building 3 and 9 will never be the same without him. Hurricanes will never be the same without him, and we'll never be the same without him. WE LOVE YOU JORDAN!!!
Live it up in heaven until we get there, remember to save a seat for us between u and Bob Marley. You bring the milk and we'll bring the "brownies and bagels". And to Jordan's parents know that your son was very loved and that he loved everyone else in return no matter what.
