Dear Iris, Bernie, Bryan, Amy and Alissa:

We have spoken often with our children about Jordan over the last few weeks, and have laughed and cried together. We've talked about his joy at being a part of family events; his gentle spirit and his big heart. We will remember him always. Our hearts go out to you at this very difficult time.

With love

ONE COULD NOT ASK FOR A BETTER FRIEND. JORDAN WAS MY DEAREST FRIEND IN THE WORLD. We shared good and bad times as friends should. I can only hope he's finally has found peace. He will forever be in my heart and mind until we meet again. Hopefully he'll greet me with a " what up kravard " or maybe a what's shaken".

I met Jordan when I attended ASU years ago...he was a very sweet, kind, and generous guy. He loved to make people laugh, and never had a bad word to say about anyone. His passing is a tragedy that will stick in my heart. My deepest sympathies go out to his family, and esp. his long time friend Bonnie Thau. My thoughts are with you.

I am in total shock and severe agony over my closest, dearest, and longest friend that I ever had. I just feel so incredibly lucky to have had him in my life for as long as I did and to have been so close to him. Your entire family means so much to me, and if any of you ever need anything, don't ever hesitate to call! Jordan meant more to me than words can say!

I am very proud and honored that Jordan and I were high school sweethearts (and many times over again throughout the last 20 years that I've known him) and each other's first love. I am also very grateful that we've been talking at least 3 times a week again during the last few months... we had such an amazing connection and relationship that can never be replaced and I will FOREVER cherrish him and our wonderful memories (and the 100s of pictures of us)! I have always loved Jordan and always will!

I'm very sad about Jordy's passing. Though I hadn't seen him in over ten years, I have fond memories of Jordy as a fun, gentle, amusing soul-an older kid that I looked up to, as well as someone who was well liked by all who knew him in Northbrook. My profound condolences are with Bryan, Alissa, and his parents
