I didn't really know Mr Jordan that well but had met him a few times as a casual aquaintance but could tell he was a real gentleman and a pleasant person to be around. I'm truly sorry for the family's loss

Nancy, Brooke and I are so sorry to hear this news and we really wish we could have made it over to see RJ. You two were the best neighbors for over 20 years that we could ever ask for. He was a great man, husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. He will be missed.

I’ve known Dylan and Anabel since college and they are two of my best friends. As such our families have become each others over the years. It’s funny that I didn’t know him as anything but Papaw since the day I met him. If you would have asked me his name I wouldn’t have known. Nonetheless, he was pretty much everyone’s Papaw. He was one of my favorite people to sit and chat with at birthday parties for his great-grandkids and it was such a joy to see how their joy would light up his face. We will all miss his presence. We are sending prayers to all of his family and friends who will be missing him this holiday season and well into the new year.
