Hey brother, been awhile since I was last on here. I think about you every day but since the sentencing it has been hard to express my feelings in words. I think about you every day on my ride home when I look at the front range, I think about when you first talked about moving out here and I thought you were crazy,until I saw it for myself. It is coming up on 9 years since I first came to Colorado and I thank you for all of those 9 years. I met my wife, started a family and finally found happiness. I just wish that you were still here to share in it with us. I plan on making the trip this summer up to the camping spot, maybe just to be a little closer to you. I miss you brother and will never forget.

I was a brand new police officer when you passed. It did stike a nerve and made me all the more cautious. I spoke to those who knew you and said you loved the job, and knew I couldn't let this scare me out. I know you are watching down on those you served with and hope you know you made a difference.

There are days that I can't remember why I am doing this crazy job. I think to myself that people don't hate firemen and I should have just done that job. I also have to admit that I don't think about you or Jared every day because I don't know if my heart could take it. Having said that, every time I come here I am reminded of your spirit and when I read all of the comments from our brothers and sisters I am rejuvenated. It helps me go on. It reminds me of why we do what we do. (Just when I thought I would come here to give some kind of word of encouragement or say something helpful I find myself being comforted and encouraged...definitely your style!)

Ken be in our hearts now and forever....

When the hour is upon us
And our beauty surely gone
No you will not be forgotten
No you will not be alone

And when the day has all but ended
And our echo starts to fade
No you will not be alone then
And you will not be afraid
No you will not be afraid

When the fog has finally lifted
From my cold and tired brow
No I will not leave you crying
And I will not let you down
No I will not let you down
I will not let you down

Now comes the night
Feel it fading away
And the soul underneath
Is it all that remains
So just slide over here
Leave your fear in the fray
Let us hold to each other
Until the end of our days

When the hour is upon us
And our beauty surely gone
No you will not be forgotten
No you will not be alone
No you will not be alone

Jordan,
It's been a year and two weeks since I've been on this page- I was hoping that I could talk to you in my thoughts and think of you through memories, but I've been drawn back to this page once again to say I'm sorry. I'm sorry that you didn't get the justice that was so rightly deserved. I am still in shock over what has happened the past two weeks- I just don't understand how the man who took your life gets to plead for his and win. Friday I watched his smug smile and watched him ignore your family, your brothers and sisters in blue, and your friends heartbreak over his triumph over our justice system. I'm hoping that one day Sue's words will become truth- that he'll take his own life after one day finally realizing what he took from you and the rest of our worlds. I miss you tremendously Jordan. You would be proud of your family and friends- they were so brave on Friday, even though we all watched an injustice occur. We stood tall for you, and we stood proud. You are so greatly admired and so greatly missed.

Sue, Ed, Norma and family....
I know there is nothing that can be done or said to make anyone feel any better. Hopefully you can find some comfort in the support of so many who love and honor Ken every single day by continuing to put on the uniform and protect/serve others. Our hearts ache with you in your loss and frustration....but NO actions can ever change the fact that Ken is a Hero, and will live on in our hearts as such FOREVER. We are here for you, always!

Lead me from death to life,
from falsehood to truth.
Lead me from despair to hope,
from fear to trust.
Lead me from hate to love,
from war to peace.
Let peace fill our heart, our world, our universe.
Peace, peace, peace.

God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.

With love and respect... prayers and thoughts are with your family and friends. We miss you.

“The only thing needed for evil to prevail is for good men and women to do nothing”.

I have been thinking about this quote today. I am truly split on what to believe, on what to feel about this. Today, I saw evil prevail and I saw good men and women stand back with their hands tied and be forced to accept it. Perhaps it is a small victory for evil, some might even argue that evil did not prevail this day, that goodness and righteousness prevailed. Unfortunately, I witnessed the face of evil smile at the assurance that his life was spared. I saw the face of evil look at those good men and women and attempt to suppress a smile while he smugly walked past. I heard the face of evil speak matter of factly, with upbeat emotion when he admitted, “I shot and killed Officer Jordan”. I saw the empty soul, the unremorseful, uncaring nature of this evil and I wonder… I wonder how it is that good men and women can stand up and do everything in their power to prevail and, ultimately, be crushed by their own system. I ache that this has happened.

On the other hand I have seen true professionals. Good men and women who have placed their faith in our culture, in our society. Men and women who see, everyday, the ills of this society, who confront evil in so many ways, yet continue to place their lives in between that evil and us. To protect us, insulate us. People who could have easily exacted justice this day but believe in the sanctity of life and the sacredness their duty so much so, that they allowed this evil to save his skin. I salute these good men and women, for what they do what they do without praise. They serve, often times, with the knowledge that they are, in fact, disliked by many in our society. They are the sheep dogs that protect the sheep from the wolves.

Look around. We are in a battle for our culture, a battle of good and evil. You may not see it, but it is there. One of the most tragic casualties of this battle is my good friend Ken Jordan and the inability to serve justice to his murder by the very system he gave his life to uphold. But the true wonder of this tragedy is that there are others who will take it and move forward to continue Ken’s fight. I hope to be one of those, and if so I will do everything in my power to honor Ken’s memory through my actions and my demeanor. That is my promise to Ken that his death will never be in vain.
