It is always tough to be away from family, especially during this time. I know that God is watching over all of you during the service today and in the days to come. Lean on Him. No one says that it will be easy.

When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter, far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed, that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose.

I will miss you! But this song will be how I remember you.
Sorry for the families loss and I will never forget his love and kindness.

Glenda, Wayne, and Family ~

I am so very sorry to hear of Jordon's passing. He was a wonderful young man and he will be missed terribly by all who were lucky enough to know him, myself included.

I remember working at the Charlestown Library the first day Jordon came to StoryHour. He was 3 or 4 years old and happy as a lark when class started, went into the room like a big boy with all the other kids, waving as he went! He did great...until he realized Mommy wasn't in there with him...then all bets were off, poor little guy. He came flying out of there and when he didn't immediately zero in on Mommy's location, he started to cry.

I picked him up, carried him to the front desk with me, and just held him for about 20 minutes or so while I worked. He was hanging on like nobody's business, had no intention of letting go, and he quit crying after just a few minutes, but he didn't want to let go, so I was more than happy to just hold him and talk to him gently, receiving a nod or two at first and, finally, a big smile every now and then, but a GIANT one when I told him I'd just seen Mommy coming up front to find him.

He was such a cuddly little guy. I still remember the feel of him in my arms all those years ago and it breaks my heart to think he's gone. He was my little buddy from then on and every time he came to the Library after that, he had hugs for me. He definitely stole my heart...and now it's broken. I can't begin to understand why things like this happen and I don't suppose I ever will. All I know is that God can heal all wounds and I believe He is holding Jordon in His mighty arms right now, giving him nothing but love and peace, mercy and blessings.

For all of you who have loved Jordon so and knew that sweet gentleness far more than I ever could, I am so very sorry for your loss. There are no words that could be said to make the pain go away or even lessen, but I pray you all know that you are loved and being prayed for by vast amounts of people. Jordon was someone special and to think he's gone is just unimaginable. I will be praying for each of you in the coming days during this terribly difficult time. Please don't hesitate to let me know if there is anything I can do to help in any way. May God bless and keep you all in His tender care and mighty arms...

Much love and prayers,
Mary Irene Shepherd Young & Scott Young, Mary Lois Shepherd

Jordan was always really nice to me in school even when he was having a bad day and I really appreciated his laugh. I am sincerely sorry for your loss and I want you to know you are not alone in feeling this loss- he will be missed.

I knew Jordon through Charlestown Football, but not well. What I did know I liked. He always had a big smile, and he worked very hard. I am sure his passing is incredibly hard for those closest to him. But I believe Jordon made a good impression on everyone he met, I know he did on me.
