Ms. Mildred,
I'm so sorry about Jordan nobody could ever imagine the pain from loosing a son unless they lost one of their own.
Jordan,
I can't believe your gone. It still wont register in my head. We known each other since 10 yrs old and i never imagined you would be gone so fast or young. You'll always be missed and remembered.
R.I.P Jordan and put in a good word for me ... <3

Sentimos mucho los momentos dificiles que estan experimentando por la perdida de Jordan Anthony Rivera . Con mas razon me gustaria compartir un texto Biblico consolador que se encuentra en Juan 5:28, 29 en donde Jesus nos dice "los que estan en las tumbas conmemorativas oiran su voz y saldran".

Nene I watched you come into this world and I watched you leave this world. I watched you grow from a baby into a very curious toddler into a handsome young man into a teenager making your mom crazy. I was lucky to be one of those that you loved and protected. Now I will do the same for your beautiful daughter. I know you will watch over us from heaven. I will miss you always. I love you Jordan.
