What a delightful surprise to arrive home tonight and find a new array of Jordan's work on the site. Peter & Lynette, thanks for putting all these images up. I am thinking of Jordan a lot as is birthday approaches. The Olympic snowboarders with their flying runs and their mile wide grins remind me of him. On Friday I heard Neil Young's The Needle and the Damage Done for the first time since Jordan's death, and started to cry. I miss him and wish he could have stayed with us and found his way through recovery. This forum has been a wonderful comfort, to read all the posts from Jordy's friends and know he touched so many people in a positive way has brought peace to me and, I hope, to all of you. Our family is diminished by his loss but the ripples he sent out into the world will keep his spirit alive, and I know he is reunited with his mom, my sister. May God bless all of you, work and pray for peace, and for the human connections we all have the ability to make and continue. I look forward to meeting some of you for the first time and reconnecting with the rest in the near future. Love, Aunt Trixie
