1 year / Kayla Greer (*Good Friend* )
Jordan, well...one year has passed without you here with us....we all wish there was something we could do just to see you one more time! We have all missed your smiles, laughs, jokes, and stupid "comments"....and no matter how hard we try, nothing will ever be the same! But we'll keep thinking of you like we have since you left us & we hope you will keep us all safe! -Be watchful over your family Jordy, they love and miss you more than anything in the world!
To the Family When you think of him, Doesn't it remind you of all the warm memories he has left behind ? Like those caring words and kind acts ? When he was alive, There must have been times when you had fights, And thought the person was a nuisance. But now a proud citizen of the Heavenly City, He is showering people with nothing but dear memories from up above. This is how your heart becomes filled with his precious, joyous remembrances. His kindness and warmth lives on in you... Cry, cry and cry... Tears are there to protect your heart. When tears finally run dry, your heart will be calm and quiet. Feeling clear inside, You will be left with the transpicuous sense of being blessed with life. So, look for beautiful things around you, And you will find a hope, a hope to move on. Would he want to see you so lonely, so sad for so long? Don't let your him worry in heaven....he knows you miss him, he will still be there when you come. --Thank you so much for everything you have done, you have put a smile on my face each time I see you!
I love you Jordy! You are in my heart forever and in my prayers always!Close

Who would ever know how one day could change our lives so profoundly. I know there is not a day that goes by that we don't think of you and long to hurry time to be with you. It is unbelieveable that one year has already passed and we will pay tribute to your angel birthday. May we find some hope, peace, comfort and strength and answers... ... If only! Love and peace my precious little brother! Close

Missing you and wondering how you have been. / Sis Nikkole
Hey Jordan,
Hey Mr. Sneaky hows it going up there in Heaven? Like Mike stated to you I can't believe its coming up on a year since you have been gone its really hard to believe and still comprehend. In the last year its gone fast and slow. But there is not one day that passes and I dont think of what a Wonderful person you are and were in life to everyone, and what you gave down deep in your heart. And everyday I ask myself what and why did God need you to help him with so bad that he took you home to Heaven. Jordan you were such an awesome kid I wish you were still here so we had today to share all the joys of life with. I wish I would have done things differently last year on the 4th. To this day I don't blame myself or anyone but I have things in my mind that I would have changed and I feel that then you would still be here. I think and think and think about your rosy cheeks, I try and imagine your voice and also your dry eyelids. And every once in awhile I will slam the toilet seat down just trying to imagine you in my house. It's so hard for me to think that you are gone and never coming back, but I know you are in Heaven now and I also know you are with friends and your Grandparents. I just wish all of us would of had the chance to tell you we loved you and goodbye. Sometimes I am very mad that you were on the damn gocart that day, but I can't do anything about that. It's going to be a very hard day on the 4th so please be with all of your family on that day and please try and comfort us all. Just remember Jordan Robert Ordal that I truly truly love you now and forever from the bottom of my heart. I wish you could just come home JR. I would be happy if you had day passes to come and visit at the cemetery. I LOVE YOU JORDAN!!!! KEEP US ALL SAFE JORDAN NOW AND FOREVER.. XXOXOXOXO. BE GOOD AND I HOPE YOUR WATCHING SOUTHPARK.. LOVE SISTER Nikkole:)
Missin you / Mike A. (Brother)
Hello Jordan my brother my friend,

Stopped by the house and no one was there so I decided to go up to your room and sit for awhile.

I want you too know that I think of you daily trying to remember the good day and all the laughfter you brought everyone.

Im waiting for the day where something special happens so I can say my brother Jordan was right here. I know your still around and would rather you be with Mom Jenny and your Dad. You will always be my brother friend buddy and much more. Pray for all of us as we do for you. Until we meet someday again love you
Thinking of you / Valerie Wieseler (none)
I am sorry to hear about your loss,I too lost a son just three years ago.Neil was 24 when he died in a car accident.I have found that we need to keep their memories going and to talk about the stuff they would do.It hard when people won't say their names in fear of upsetting us,but that makes it harded on us.I was told that if you light a candle in the house that they can see the flame,so I keep a candle going so he can see that I am with him.I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you and your family.
Missing you / Chelle
I tried to paint the deck yesterday....You were the last one who painted it and you had such a proud smile on your face when you showed me what a good job you did. You were so cute and glowing. I took you to buy a new pair of K-Swiss because you had managed to paint the ones you were wearing. I was so proud of you for all the odd jobs you did around my house. I love you now and forever. While I was painting the deck I was missing and thinking of you and asked in my prayers that you would pour out your love and let us know you were around....well the funny thing was that no sooner had I painted one side of the deck and it started to downpour...all of the paint washed off of the deck. I didn't know if it was a coincidence, but I didn't think it was supposed to rain all day. I did get a good chuckle out of the timing of the situation... I guess you and God didn't think I did a good enough job and now I will have to repaint it...Thanks for the laugh and the memories and always knowing you are God's helper pouring out the rain...You will be forever missed.

As a year comes up since you left earth to go to heaven I still wondering why this had to happen. I just dont understand at all and im lost. Im trying to remeber you and the last days of your wonder fun life. I do remeber you calling me up and asking me if I had any works. YOU were making bombs and I couldnt believe it. So after work one night I had you show me how you did it. You first rolled up tin-foil into little balls and put them into a pop bottle and puored works on it and put a lid on it and threw it. Wow what a bang it made!!!!!! We laughed and did it again!!!! Your laugh when you were having such a good time was one that was really neat and I will never forget it. The time that I did things with you was really neat, and man do I wish there was more!!!! Jordan you left such an impression on my life by who you were as a person. I will never forget you and at times when im doing other stuff you are in the back of my mind!!!! I wish there was an easy answer to this but theres not sorry. I dont know gods reasoning but he had a bigger plan for you and one day I hope to find out why he wanted you and Allen. I love you brother be with us and help and each and everyone you can. Pray for us as we do for you love ya!!! See you one day again.
JORDAN I VISITED YOUR GRAVE TODAY AND WATERED YOUR FLOWERS. THEY WERE VERY DRY AND NEEDED TO HAVE A BIG DRINK OF WATER. EACH AND EVERY DAY THAT PASSES HAS ME STILL WISHING THAT YOU WERE HERE WITH ME AND THAT I COULD HOLD YOU IN MY ARMS AND TELL YOU HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU. YOU ARE MY BABY BOY!! IT DIDN'T MATTER HOW OLD YOU WOULD GET YOU WOULD ALWAYS BE MY BABY BOY. LIFE GOES ON WITHOUT YOU AND IT IS EXTREMELY LONELY WITHOUT YOU IN ALL OF OUR LIVES. A PART OF US DIED WHEN YOU DIED AND IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. GOD HAS GIVEN US THE STRENGTH TO MOVE ON BUT IT TAKES ALOT OF PRAYING AND ALOT OF LEANING ON THE LORD TO MAKE IT THRU THE DAY'S AND NIGHT'S WITHOUT YOU. THE HOUSE IS TOO QUIET WITHOUT YOU, YOU BROUGHT US ALL SUCH LAUGHTER AND FUN. SUNDAY CHARLEE WILL BE BAPTIZED AND SOON JADA WILL ALSO BE BAPTIZED. WE THANK GOD FOR THE NEW BABIES AND ASK THAT HE WILL BLESS EACH OF THEIR BAPTISM DAY AS THE FAMILY GATHERS TOGETHER. i REMEMBER YOUR BAPTISM WHICH TOOK PLACE HERE IN TOWN AT FIRST LUTHERAN. WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY THAT WAS
missing you in dreams / Chelle
A.T had a dream about you last night. She dreamt that only Jenny and her knew you were going to die and they did everything you asked them to. They went and got your x-box and sent me to get you Mt.Dew. She said they tried to tell everyone you weren't alive but they wouldn't listen. She said she could put her hands right through you. She said what she remembers the most about you is how you protected and cared for her. She also told me some boys asked her if she was your boyfriend. She loves and misses you so very much and the reality of you not coming back is so hard to bare...Love you now and forever Jordan Robert....You are forever in our dreams, hearts and tears...We cry for you so very much! It completely stinks to see your baby cry!
Memories/ A.T.
I thought of you today and I remembered when I used to sit on your lap when we were on the computer and beg you to take pictures of me with the web cam.
Irony/ Chelle
Last Memorial day like every year you played the trumpet for your deceased grandparents...last year you and Jenny played a duet...this year as dad so eloquently put it with be silence.... May you blow your trumpet down from Heaven.
HI/ Kaitlyn Foley (Passing by )
Hi my name is Kaitlyn Foley and on April 11th 2006 I lost my 18 year old brother in a car accident. It's so hard and now I feel like I am not the only one. I do not have as many brothers and sisters as you do but I do have a younger brother who is 13 years old. He is in 8th grade. I am 14 years old and i am a Freshman at South Windsor High. My brother was a Senior at the High School with me. It's been really hard and it has only been a month. It was very nice of you to write something becaue it gives me a chance to meet people who are in the same boat as me! Thank you again! and feel free to email me anytime! Kaitlyn14@cox.netClose
So many young people / Chelle
So many young people have lost their lives over the past year that it really makes everyone question what we are doing here on Earth. May God grant each of us peace and strength to carry on. A friend sent this loving note to me as a reminder that while we may not see your beautiful blond hair and rosy cheeks, you will forever burn in our heart. This is what she sent me.
