Help for the Jordan’s
Please Support The Jordan family
Beloved husband, father, son, uncle, friend, neighbor and life-long resident of our beautiful Loveland, unfortunately and shockingly passed away on January 20th, 2022. He was 52.
A little bit about Todd, he was a devoted family man. He was a great husband to his wife Paula, who he loved dearly. He unconditionally loved and was ridiculously proud of his two kiddos, Isabella and Sebastian. He was devoted to his father, Ron Jordan, and checked on him daily. He was especially attentive after the loss of his mother he adored, Beth Jordan, a few years ago. He was an attentive and caring Uncle to many nieces and nephews. And he was true to his friends. He was a sincere, kind-hearted man. When he asked how you were doing, he genuinely listened and cared about your response. And he gave the best hugs. He was quirky, fun, sometimes slightly ridiculous and most definitely stubborn. He dreamed of Montana often as he loved the beauty of the state. And he had plans on taking his daughter, Isabella, there soon to get her situated with a summer job.
After a picture-perfect family Christmas, Todd fell ill. The whole family did. Victims of this awful pandemic time. But while everyone else got better, Todd got worse and worse. Todd had bladder cancer last year which made his fight with Covid a difficult one. After being hospitalized he, sadly, succumbed to his illness in the early evening of January 20 with family by his side. He passed peacefully.
Nobody is prepared for the loss of a loved one especially when it’s so sudden and unexpected. To say our hearts are broken would be a wild understatement. We are in disbelief, shocked, shaken.
Todd had been laid off from his job due to Covid and downsizing of his department a couple months before the Holidays putting a strain on the family’s finances which makes this even more difficult. He had no life or health insurance. Paula, unfortunately, has been in a series of accidents that limits her ability to work consistently. Any help that can be provided to assist the family with celebrating his life and helping with the financial difficulties of losing a husband and father will be greatly appreciated. And please, keep this space free of judgement and anger.
Remember Todd Jordan…
Fondly as the fabulous husband, father, son, uncle and friend that he was
As the bear-obsessed, snake-hating, fishing-catching, mole-loathing funny, kind man
Happily hiking
Playing poker in Boy’s Club weekly (no girls allowed)
For his stubbornness and occasional OCD
For NOT wanting a cat and then becoming that cat’s “person”
As a talented turkey carver and grill master at family gatherings
Around the pool at Nana/Aunt Sissy’s house on a sunny day
Around our fire pits
Sitting on the bench in front of his house smoking a cigar (which he gave up)
Throwing a stuffed animal cat into the street in front of speeding cars to slow them down (true ‘World According to Garp’ crazy man!)
As Mr. Todd yelling across the street
As one of the few people who know the actual Loveland Frogman story
Walking to the river in his fishing vest, pole in hand, with a smile on his face
For his love, passion, friendship
For ______ (fill in the blank with your memory/moment with him that gives you a smile)
Remember Todd Jordan
