I am a member of the Sheehan family tree. It is through my cousin Peter that I became friends with Jordan. I am very grateful to have had this opportunity even though it was unfortunately so short. We were finally introduced after about two years of Peter insisting on how well we would get along. He was right. The second time I met him, Jordan gave me a painting. The painting hangs on my wall as I write these words. It reminds me of what a great and talented person Jordan was and how he always wanted to share himself and his love of life with his friends and family. This painting, although tiny in size, also reminds me of what a giant Jordan was, not in physical size but in the impact he made on people, many of whom are 'gathered' together on this message board. To share thoughts and memories of this beloved person is to not let his bright light fade. Thanks.
