 Family was everything to Jordon and he was looking forward to becoming uncle to his niece, Sadie Marie. He loved any reason to gather with his family. Jordon also loved his friends and camp friends as family. He made everyone feel like a friend and he never met a stranger and if you liked Ole Miss, he loved you even more.

Jordon was very social, and he brought laughter to whoever he was with. Jordon's love for the Ole Miss Rebels knew no boundaries. He enjoyed road trips, and never minded if he had to sleep on a couch. His family and friends will always remember him as someone who brought joy and laughter to any occasion, and as someone who not only loved, but loved big.
