I am so very sorry. I know there's nothing we can say that will ease your pain. I can't imagine how difficult this must be. We don't expect things like this to happen to us and our friends. Why is it that it's always the innocent that suffer? If you need us, we're all here for you.
Keeping everyone involved in my thoughts and prayers. What a horribly sad thing to have happen! He looks like such a nice young man in the pictures..........
I think the other driver, and her family and friends if she has any, all need to be in our prayers, too---but with a little different focus. They definitely need prayers. (They probably don't have nearly as many prayers going out for them as Jordan and his family and friends do.)
It's difficult to believe that any good can come from this tragedy, but there MUST be some reason for things happening the way they did. Maybe someone else's life was spared by this happening---maybe even that of a small child in a car just down the road that could have been hit if Jordan's hadn't been hit...... It's something we will never know or understand in this life. But there just HAS to be some reason for this........
Kimmy, I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your friend Jordan. :(
My sincere condolences....
My heart goes out to you and his family.

Kim, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your dear friend, Jordan.
These events in life are just so difficult to absorb and we try so hard to understand why - why.
I am so sorry...that sounds tragic. I know it will be extrememly hard...
It doesn't sound like anything right now, but we are all here for you.
Kimmy& Andy, I'm so sorry to hear about your friends passing.:( RIP Jordan.
{{{{HUGS}}}}
So sorry to hear about this sad event. Prayers and thoughts to you all. Makes me angry that careless drivers are allowed on the road:mad: Hope the driver who caused this will be punished.
Thinking of you and of course Jordans family.
Life most certainly is not fair. I'm so very sorry to hear about your friend.
Sending all my best wishes to you and your friends family.
OH no....Kim, I´m so sorry to hear that :( :( I agree life sometimes just isnt fair :(
Prayres to you&Any and Jordan´s family....
((((HUGS))))
Thanks everyone. One day at a time. We all went and saw Star Wars last night. It's what Jordan would of wanted us to do.
tikeyas_mom, I'm not sure if the driver was ever arrested. I was going to see if I could find more news on that. At the time of the first article, no charges had been filed.
I am so very sorry. So much life was lying in front of him:(
Sending my best thoughts to you and Jordan's family.
I was watching the 11 o'clock news last night, and they were at the local theater wtih all the people dressed up, waiting to see the movie. I only met Jordan once, but it still brought tears to my eyes, I cause I knew, he should have been in that line.Quote:

(and BTW none of the costumes I saw looked as good as the ones you guys have made :D)
I knew I'd be reminded of Jordan especially since the movie deals with death, but one scene really stood out and I got a little choked up.
Aw! Thanks Amy. :) A few of our friends costumed a good part of the day at the theater, but Andy and I just weren't up for it.Quote:

Kimmy, I'm so sorry about your friend, Jordan. :(
I'm so sorry hear about your friend:(
Very sorry to hear about your friend, Kimmy. Sadly, I've been through something similar so I know exactly what you're feeling - if you ever need to talk/vent, please feel free to PM me. I know all too well exactly what you're going through. :( It really is such a horrible waste and I hope the other driver is held responsible.
I'm so sorry to hear this, Kimmy, what a tragedy. I can't imagine the loss you are feeling right now. {{hugs}}
So sorry to hear about your friend Jordan, I recently lost a good friend of mine also. You, his family and all his friends will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Oh sweety {{Hugs}}, what a shocking thing to happen. Thoughts and prayers on the way for all family and friends. I am speachless.
:(
{{HUGS}}
Kimmy I'm so sorry. I'm just now seeing this but you and Jordons friends and family are in my prayers. What a horrible tragic thing to have to experience.:(
Such an awful thing to happen. :( My heart goes out to you both and Jordans family.
{{hugs}}
Chris
Thank you, everyone.
The weekend was ...rough.
Jordan's parents are Jehovah Witnesses, though Jordan stepped away from that path years ago. A service was held at their church and there was no body... no urn. (Later found out that Jordan had wished to be cremated) They talked only a little about Jordan and then it turned into a scripture lesson. Many had nothing to do about death.
The service was emotionally void. I know funerals are for the living and I'm sure it was Jordan's parents needed, but I didn't get that closure. I didn't get to say goodbye to my friend. It still doesn't feel real. I expect him to call or email me at any time.
His parents are very nice people. I had to choke back tears when Jordan's dad told Andy and I how fondly Jordan talked of us.
:(
Oh Kimmy, I'm so sorry. :( It is so hard when such young life is taken so tragically. I hope you can find closure in your own way since the service didn't seem to help any. Perhaps a little memorial service the next time you and your friends gather would help a bit.
RIP Jordan. For reasons we will never know or understand, you were needed and called away from your earthly life. :(
I'm so sorry for your loss:( I know that there are no words to ease your pain but know that you are in my prayers!
I lost my best friend 7 seven years ago in a motorcycle wreck and I know that these times seem like they won't get better or the pain won't ease up but know that in time your pain will ease up and things will get better...You have alot of good memories of him to get you through this and memories that will never be taken by anyone....
Oh Kimmy.... I'm so sorry to hear about your dear frined, Jordan. That's so awful. What a horrible shame.:( :( :( Why do people just have to suddenly die like this, because of stupid people???:confused: I bet the lady feels pretty dowm in the dumps right now, Kimmy.
You and your family, and Jordans family will be in my prayers right now.
It's been 6 years since this happened and Jordan still comes to mind. It really does feel just like yesterday.
Sometime after the accident, I had a dream about Jordan. I was at a party hanging out with friends in the basement. I glance over at the stairs and was shocked to see Jordan coming down and heading my way. I stood in disbelief because I knew he had died. I'm embarressed that my first words were, "You can't be here!". :o But he just smiled and laughed, gave me a huge hug and said, "It's all going to be okay." And I woke up. :(:love::(:love:
Life of course has gone on. His best friend Jason had his first child and they named him Jordan. He's a cute little guy who just turned 2.
It especially feels bitter sweet this year as it's the last of the Harry Potter movies that he enjoyed so much. (Loved the books as well.) I will definitely raise a glass the day HP 7 part 2 opens.
I miss him so much.
I joined PT in 2008 so I'm just seeing this. I'm so sorry for the loss of your dear friend. I think that dream was very spiritual and I'm sure he was there telling you it was all going to be ok...:love:
I am so sorry for your loss. Life is indeed not fair or just. May the happy memories you had together give you peace and a smile when you least expect it.
I remember when you guys came down and we all went to dinner at Shorty's BBQ. My brother was also with us and I remember there being a lot of debate about movies and maybe music? Anyway, maybe some more less "mainstream" films and that I really didn't know much about. Anyway, I remember afterward my brother commenting how nice it was to meet some people that "got" him and were into some of the same things he was. It was only 2 monthsafter Jordan, that my brother died.
I hope he and Jordan have met up again somewhere and are enjoying sdiscussing movies and sci-fi and all that stuff. Maybe they've even got an advanced preview of HP 7 pt 2! ;)
That's a real nice thought Amy. :)
