Darrel R. Jordan - Online Memorial Website

Hi baby, here it is your birthday and I am remembering your excitement for your birthday.  Once again, Kurtis,Beth,Vic, J-man and I will go to the movie today and feel your presence.  I just want to sense you being there.  I miss you so very much and, your laughter, beautiful smile and your positive attitude.  I am sure you celebrated Jesus birth the other day and so did we.  I know honey, that you must be at peace at last and must be making everyone laugh and have a wonderful time.  I miss that.  I had an unusual phone call from a lady the other day that says she stops by your cross and that you gave her solitude and peace, even now you touch people's lives.  I am sure you see the painted rocks that she brings you periodically and I have often wondered who was doing it.  The only thing I know is that she is 75 years old.  WOW!!!!  amazing.  Maybe one day I will meet her and be able to give her a hug.  So very kind of her to do so.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY my love and dance to your hearts content.  I know you can do that with ease now without a worry.  I missed you on Christmas at Beth's.  You would have been 37 today here on earth.  I love you my darling baby boy and miss you even more.  I look forward to the day I see you again and you can show me  around and be my guide there.  Rest my love til I see you again.

Oh Darrel, three years ago today we danced and professed our love for one another with assurances that we both knew how deep that love was.  If only I could tell you again today with you in my arms.  Those feelings and memories are so very vivid in my mind.  I miss you so much.  I miss your gentle hugs, beautiful smiles, your laughter, your many phone calls.  I know you were very tired and so did God, that's why he called you home.  If only I could have taken some of your pain away.  God knows I would have.  Victoria asked me the other day if I thought you would be proud of her for making the Jr Varsity Volleyball team, I told her of course you would and that you were always proud of her and all of her accomplishments.  I told her that your pride showed in every picture you had with her and Jman.  You loved them so much.  So many times I wish that I could just have one more day with you and tell you one more time how much I love you, but then I would want just one more day again and again.  Some times when I am driving I feel the intense hole in my heart and I lose my breath and start to cry.  I can't stop it.  Sometimes I think I am losing my mind.  I know that God will see me thru but I often wonder when he will give me strength to carry on.  Stay with me my love, hang on tight.  I just remembered our trip to Jackpot and how we laughed until our tummies hurt and our eyes filled with tears from laughing so very hard.  Sweet memory!!!!!!!!  Until we see each other again, I hope you dance like there is no end, laugh until your tummy hurts and watch over us all like there is no tomorrow.  I love and miss you with all my heart.  Until we see each other again, Dance.

As 2008 fades away, we wish you were still here, but we know you are seizure free and at peace. 

We miss your smiles and laughter, we thank God for blessing us with you in our lives.

I will never forget the talks and laughter we had.

I miss you

Forever in our hearts.

I love you

     Hi, my baby boy, just wanted to let you know that I made it thru Christmas and your Birthday.  It was very hard, but I didn't want to drag anyone else down.  I thought of you often and missed you so much.  Eric Clapton was singing " Tears in Heaven " tonight on tv and I thought of you and your love of his singing.  They were talking about John Travolta losing their son and all of the other stars that had lost their children.  It was so overwhelming to me because Jett died from seizures as well.  Some of the stars talked about not ever getting over it, and it is so very true.  I will never get over it love.  I would love to be able to just hold you for a moment and reiterate to you how much I loved you.  I really miss the fact that I didn't get to hold you when they found you, but I guess it was best I didn't.  That alone leaves a massive hole in my heart.  I can still feel my hand running thru your hair, so silky and soft.  the smell of your cologne, Old Spice,your ever so soft kisses.  Also, the words you had to say the night before you went away are so etched in my mind and I replay it over and over again.  I can only imagine the celebration you shared with Jesus on his birthday.  Honey, until I can touch you again be happy, seizure free and rest.  I love and miss you more than I can say.    

" Only the Best"

 

A heart of gold stopped beating,

two shining eyes at rest.

God broke our hearts to prove

he only takes the best.

God knows you had to leave us,

but you did not go alone.

For part of us went with you

the day he took you home.

To some you are forgotten,

to others just part of the past,

but to us who loved and lost you

the memory will always last.

 

I love and miss you

Love Aunt Nell
