Jordan, I still think about you often. 
I think of Jordan many other days besides this one. And then we lost Hope too, so sad. I loved them both. I tried to insert a photo here  but it didn't work.
Jordan taught me to drive when I was about 13 years old in his 1956 primer gray Ford F100. I learned how and when to use the granny gear and also—in that big gravel parking lot next to the fishing bridge on the American River—I learned to do emergency stops, how to correct a slide, and just generally how to handle a car when it wasn’t behaving. Given how much I liked to drive very fast, I do think that early lesson helped keep me and my passengers safe.

Now, in 2022, I still  think of Jordan often, and wish we could have a good talk together, and enjoy the outdoor outings like we used to. I wish I could have helped him more--He was my "blister boy" --he called every injury when little a blister. He was my first born. I miss him.
Jordan is the only one of my kids who actually learned how to telemark skis. We went on several ski jaunts, as well as hikes and backpacks. I think of him often.
I remember a wonderful pack trip the two of us took when he was about junior high age. We went into Winnemucka Lake and Forth of July Lake, then down a ways into Summit City Canyon, very remote. Jordan is the only one of my kids who back packed with me. It was a special trip.

Thanks for the photos and memories, all.

I remember "big brother" Jordan from when we were kids.

The last time I saw Jordan was at Aunt Katherine's house in Colorado. He was with Hope, and he and Mike Woods were doing an off-color invented impersonation that had us all in tears.

Thanks for the laughs, Jordan.

My deepest condolences to all of you who shared your lives with him and who love him.
