Jordan Dejesus Obituary

November 21, 1993 - August 1, 2025
The beloved son of David and Di-Onetta (Angel) DeJesus; brother to Justin and Jada DeJesus, nephew, cousin, ex-husband to Jasiri DeJesus (nee Toppin), and friend to many entered into eternal rest. Jordan was more than a son; he was a force of nature, a radiant soul, a powerful energy, and a light to all who had the blessing of knowing him. Jordan had an unmatched spirit: vibrant, strong, loving, and endlessly generous. His presence lit up every room he entered, and his warmth made strangers like family.

His smile was unforgettable, his laugh contagious, and his sense of humor always on point; witty, sharp, and full of life. He had the rare gift of lifting spirits, even in difficult times, and he lived with a grace and strength that inspired those around him.

Jordan was a guiding light in our lives. His legacy lives on through the love he poured into us, the values he instilled, and the countless lives he touched with kindness, compassion, and joy. We are grieving deeply, but we are also immensely grateful for every moment, every memory, and every lesson he gave us.

Family and friends are invited to a celebration of life on Friday, October 24, at the White Plains Baptist Church, 8470 Marshall Corner Road, Pomfret, MD 20675, at 12 p.m.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
