Ten years ago your light was extinguished here on earth. Your light still shines bright in our hearts. We still miss you. 
Today you would have been thirty-one. I can imagine the sweet young man you would have become. You were always sweet, living, caring and compassionate, but I can’t help but think what direction your life might have taken. I think it would have been in service to others as I remember how you always thought of others.
Papa still decorates your tree during holidays and your birthday. We light a candle and remember your sweet smile and disposition. We miss your laugh and your sweet nature, but know you are with God in Heaven. You are always in our hearts and minds. You taught us so much and we honor your memory and look forward to the day when we see you again.  Happy Birthday in Heaven our sweet one. Papa and I love you and always will. Until we meet again….Meme and Papa

Jordan David, Happy Thanksgiving, I spent the day with Tina and Tay,.  I miss you always, I know you watch over us, I missed you so much today, but I hide my pain well now,. I am thankful I always feel your presence.....I miss you jord, until we meet again, I love you ..until the end of time..love always , your mama

Hmmmm...I still see your signs!! I know you watch after me...i feel you ALWAYS.....  I cant put myself in anybody's place. For me ...its just the ...the feeling you never want anyone to get.i know for a fact. You changed my life !  I miss you. I love you. But we WILL BE TOGETHER JORD. WE ALWAYS HAVE BEEN.   Not sure why. This has happened...i am not sure about the lesson....but I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN. I ALWAYS HAVE. WE WILL FIND EACHOTHER. I LOVE YOU JORD!! UNTIL THE END OF TIME!!

Jordan David....Happy 30th birthday, i often wonder ....about the man you would have become?  What i think about is how truly amazing you were....how i see the signs you send me....although your not here on this earth. You are always with me. Looking after me.....i love you jord.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! I LOVE YOU UNTIL THE END OF TIME !!!!

Happy Birthday, my mate. It has been a while since I have really written anything to you, but that does not mean I think of you, or miss you any less. In fact, with each passing year, the pain still deepens, the chasm widens.
Today you would be 30 years old, and I have so many questions about what life would be like if you were alive still. Would we be together still? Where would we be and what would we be doing? I know that you want me to live a life with irrevocable joy, but at times I feel a deep sense of guilt for simply being here without you. Do not get me wrong, I am generally happy with my life and I know that you would be so proud of me, what I have accomplished; however this feeling is inexplicable and, at times, overwhelming.
Society is in such chaos and you were always so compassionate and open, wearing your heart on your sleeve, perhaps it's better you are not here to experience all of the sorrow....but I know that there are those now that could use your strong reserve and abundant source of vitality.
I will miss you always. <3

You always said to me...i should write....well I have nothing else to write.....this seems like it should be the final chapter.....chapter 11:11. She lives with a broken heart!!!! The real tragedy...is that she lives!!!! I miss you Jord!!!! Until we meet again... I love you until. The. End. Of ...time....

Jord. I was gonna write alot!!!! I just want to thank you...because there are no words.  I LOVE YOU UNTIL THE END OF TIME =1111

Thought of you today. Every year we light a candle and papa decorates the tree for you. Of course, your tree is decorated for each holiday and your birthday as well.
Nine years later we still miss you. I can’t believe it’s been nine years. You would be twenty-eight now. I can imagine you at this age. Life is so different. I miss your smile, you head on my shoulder and your sweet voice....still!
I flipped through the pictures today and smiled. Although you are gone, you are still with us. Love you Jord❤️

Jordan I miss you more than words could ever express,
My life has never been the same, and never will be, you remain my hero, my teacher, my best friend, I am so blessed to have had you for 19 beautiful years.....

Happy 27th birthday my sweet sweet precious jord, the years seem to go by so quickly now, just seems like yesterday when you got on that plane back to San Francisco, you may not be here physically on this earth, but you are always in my thoughts, you live always within my heart and soul, until we meet again,  I love you jord, and you know ...until the end of time...HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SWEET SON

My sweet Jordan, happy 26 for you , on our earth years, I guess the universe had another plan for you , they tell me , one day I will understand,  why , that one day, it will make sense, and my reply, is always the same,   one day is not today,  so today, I'll miss you , just like yesterday, and , I'll miss you tomorrow, so UNTIL the end of time, until we meet again, which I know we will,  I will remain, sad , lost, broken, until that day comes, I will never be the same , I'm not complete without you ,  I love you so so much , and I just can't wait till I see you AGAIN, until then , I just try to be strong, have courage, and be kind ,   somehow, I know ,  you understand THAT. I miss you so much jord. And I love you ,  UNTIL the end of time, till we meet AGAIN, and I know we will

JORD ,  I am lighting a candle as I always do , because although you are not physically here , your spirit continues on , still coming on 6 years , your presence is still profound, I feel you everyday , and I know you were there when we were at the beach, Tina, Jen, meme and papa, and Taylor,  you were with us ,and always will be , although we can't see you , I can feel you ,  I always feel your words of not only wisdom, but truth and unconditional love, I know you are with us ,  that's what keeps me going,  knowing every step I take is towards your loving hugs ,  thank you JORD, for always being with us ..love always your mama

Jord another year today that is going to start without you here in the flesh. That makes six years without your warm smile, sweet touch amazing hugs, and loving spirit. You taught as all so much. I think of you daily and miss you every day as we all do. It feels like years since I have seen you, yet it also seems like yesterday as I always feel you near. What I would give for another hug. I know your days are wonderful and how could I possibly wish you back when you are in Heaven? I miss you that is why...Papa and I will always miss you. You are always in our hearts. Soon you would have been 26, somehow I can imagine that you would have become successful in whatever you chose and happy. Love you bunches!

Jord it's your 24th birthday and we are missing you a lot as we do every day we love you Jordan and I wish I had told you more I remember how easy saying and doing that word was for you. Happy 24th and I know where you are there is a great party taking place.

         Love you jord
             Your papa

I was thinking about you today. There are so many people who miss you. I think of you daily but usually find it difficult to write. Little Taylor turned 9 without you today. I know you were there regardless. You are always with us as we gather. You will always be missed. I am sure you have seen your picture in Jay's room and Tay's desk. You are never forgotten. She is getting so big and you would have been dancing all over the place today with her. You would have made us all smile and laugh. I love and miss you and just wanted you to know. Kisses and hugs. By the way, Skye is right, you would love Katelynn. She is adorable and you would be so proud of Skye, she's a great mom. I think Katelynn is her Barbie doll. That child has more clothes than anyone I know. She has a very sweet temperment. You'd love her. Of course, you loved everyone and never judged anyone!

Hi Jord! I'd like to start with saying I miss you like crazy. I have this beautiful baby girl, her name is Katelynn. You'd love her. She's perfect in every way just like you. Sometimes it kills me to think she'll never get to meet you. But I promise to tell her everyday about you. Every memory. I wish you could meet her though and watch her grow, even teach her a thing or two, but I know you're not only watching over me but her now also. I love you always.

Happy 22 'Earth' Year Birthday to you sweet boy! Today is the day we celebrate the day God blessed all of us with you! I only wish we were together to celebrate but you are in my heart and I know there is a great celebration today in heaven! I love and miss you so much! Xox

Thoughts of you...everyone misses you terribly. The pain your family has endured is heartbreaking. May all who loved you carry your joy, whimsical innocence, and wanderlust in their hearts and spread your love, genuineness, and kindness. It's good to remember "almost everyone carries bags of cement..." and we should take care of one another instead of weighing the bags as to prove who suffers most. 

A poem by Edward Hirsch after losing his son:

I did not know the work of mourning
Is like carrying a bag of cement
Up a mountain at night

The mountaintop is not in sight
Because there is no mountaintop
Poor Sisyphus grief

I did not know I would struggle
Through a ragged underbrush
Without an upward path

Look closely and you will see
Almost everyone carrying bags
Of cement on their shoulders
That’s why it takes courage
To get out of bed in the morning

~ Edward Hirsch
