Jordan’s passing, reported as an apparent suicide, has left her family, friends, and all who knew her in a state of profound sorrow and disbelief.
At just 28 years old, Jordan was known for her kind heart, infectious smile, and compassionate soul. A native of South Carolina, she grew up with a love for nature, music, and meaningful conversations.
