He has risen indeed.
I’m so sorry Jordan for your loss at such a young age.
Beautiful way to honor your dad. God bless. ✝️💟
God bless you Jordan. Sad but uplifting. Your dad would be proud of the man you became
Thanks for your honesty and your beautiful tribute to your father, Jordan. I’m so happy to see how you’ve grown and changed, and I’m sure your Dad would be incredibly proud of you, and what you e accomplished. God bless you today, Jordan.
He is Risen indeed! Thank you for sharing your dad with us, Jordan. Very brave of you to do so. Thank you for that. God bless and keep you and your family.
I lost my mom last month Jordan, so this one hit close to home. Thank you for sharing your story, may your father rest in peace.
Sorry on your recent loss. My mother has been gone 16 years now. It never gets easier, at least for me.
she is with you and we all see each other again - but nothing is ever the same when they are not on earth !!! she wants you to finish your journey strong 💪!!! but how dare they ever leave !!!
God bless you 🙏 Peaceful Rest to ur Queen. ❤
Jordan, you have a way of being so beautifully open and touching so many hearts. Your dad sounds like someone we would have hung out with. You really did make something of yourself when you left Troy. You’ve done something that most people can never do in opening up the world to people. You’ve actually made a positive difference in many lives, I know that you have in ours over the time that we’ve watched your channel. We’re not in Granada Hills anymore, we are now in Northwest Arkansas. If you’re ever in the area, please come have more tacos with us and bring Jah!💕👍🏼
Easter 1990 must have been extremely rough for you, Jordan. Your honesty about this sad situation is deeply appreciated. Thanks for sharing this personal story with us. May your father rest in peace.
So sorry for your great loss Jordan. Losing your dad is difficult as an adult, but as a child it is earth shattering! He would be so proud of the man you've become thanks to your granddad. You were raised in love and that's what matters most. God's peace ❤
❤thanks for sharing. Pray and know he is with you ...
What a very traumatic time for a little boy to go through. I’m happy you had family that loved and cared for you.
Dearest Jordan…. You are a magnificent human being. Thank you for starting this vlog saying our Lord is risen. You are such an important part of all that’s good. I am so sorry about your father passing. He loved you, and you loved him. Your grandfather is wonderful. I feel like I personally know all of you. You have all my love always, Jordan. Please know how much your kind heart means. Love to Jah, too
What a story of your childhood and your dad struggling with his illness. As a dad of two myself I know your dad loved you guys and went out of his way to make sure you were happy. Thank you for exposing your heart and sharing something so personal. Your dad would be so proud of you today with all your accomplishments. He went HOME about the same time our Savior rose 2,000 years before. There’s a place waiting for you. Big hugs, Jordan. Much love!
Not me in absolute tears, thank you for sharing this story with us Jordan. Much respect to your Father may he rest easy.
Fellow Ohioian here. I am so sorry this happened to you, I sometimes forget that people have good relationships with their fathers, mine is a abusive jerk, your dad seemed like a good man. May he rest in Peace, and I am so glad that things have changed and kids can see their loved ones more when they pass. I remember not being able to see my grandpa when he passed either, I was 7. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
Thank you for sharing. I know it couldn’t of been easy sharing the story but thank you for trusting us to tell us sending you hugs Jordan love being one of your subscribers and I hope one day I can meet you and call you a friend.
I'm so sorry you had to endure that at such a young age, and on a holiday as well. Your Dad would be proud so proud of you, you're a strong young man of this world, making others happy. Thank you Jordan for the vlog and for trusting us with your story.
Thank you Jordan for sharing such a personal, painful part of your life. 😢 You are a strong, thoughtful, successful man and I bet your Dad is so proud of you! Rest in peace Mr. Jerry Lee. 🙏🕊🌷Happy Easter to you and your family
I’m so very sorry Jordan. No matter how old we get the loss of a parent never stops hurting 😢❤
Your story just touched and broke my heart for you! What a trauma at an early age. Talking about it becomes cathartic though. My sister passed from cancer on Feb 11, 2013 (same day as our daughters birthday) and the sadness is very real. You have worked so hard to live your life to the fullest and I would venture to say your dad would be so proud!
I'm so sorry Jordan. This broke my heart but your Dad can be proud of the person you are. Much love and support to you.
I am so sorry for the loss of your father any day, but especially on Easter and as an 8 year old little boy. 😢 I’ve been crying and praying for you through the whole video. Thank you Jordon for sharing your story with us and for such a wonderful legacy memorial for your dad! You are such an inspiration and incredible person. I thank God for your mom, sister and your family that have been there and helped you through that. Praise Jesus everything has now come full circle for you and your family. Yes sir, He is risen, YES HE IS RISEN INDEED!
Heartbreaking, poignant, ultimately triumphant. Much like the first Easter. Treasure every day of your Life Jordan. Each one is a gift. Thank you for sharing a memory we all can relate to. Your Dad began his greatest adventure on April 15, 1990.
You deserve a happy Easter.
My dad died of brain cancer but not at young age.
I hope one Easter you'll make great memories 🙏🤍
You look so much like your dad Jordan. I'm glad you carry wonderful memories of him. I'm sorry you had to lose him at such a young age, but I hope that in your heart you know how much he loved you and how proud of you he is. Rest in peace Mr. Lee.
This one hit me! My dad is very sick with lung cancer and copd. I got to go to church with him yesterday but he's very sick. God bless you Jordan. I'm so sorry you didn't have more time wiht your dad. You look like him! Yes, HE IS RISEN!!!
Another fellow Ohioan. I live in Maumee just outside Toledo. Your tribute to your dad is incredible. He did a great job in raising you. I just wanted to say I'm so sorry to hear the story of your dad and my heart goes out to you. I'm not sure how far Troy is from where I live, but I wanted you to know I watched this video and it tugged on my heart strings. I know if I were in your dad's shoes, I'd be quite happy about how you turned out. You're a kind man - and we need more like you on here... and your videos are awesome!
Jordan thank you for sharing this. You being so vulnerable is inspiring. I just know in my heart, your Father is proud of you. You have touched so many lives in such a beautiful way. Your the adventurer for those that can't go to the places you visit. You go for all of us. God bless you this Easter season. I am so happy you have such a wonderful girlfriend. Much love to you two.
You and your dad were both so young and it seems he has had a great influence on you. Sorry to hear his family members chose to be such jerks! This was an amazing vlog and tribute ❤ thank you so much for sharing. Many hugs from "up north" 🇨🇦💜
Thank you for sharing such a personal story. You turned out to be a talented, well spoken, respectful and kind person from what I have seen in your videos. Your dad would be very proud.
Oh Jordan. So very sorry you had the worst Easter ever. I'm so glad your buddy invited you and made a new Easter memory for you. We lost my Gramma(I called her Mom, bcs she was more a Mom to me than my own) on my sister's birthday, the 13th of December. Christmas was a disaster that year. But that was her very favorite holiday. We played Elvis at Christmas time, and Freddy Fender :) It took me almost 2 yrs to right myself after that. It rocked me to my core. It was so hard. I was hurt so badly by that. None of us escape death, or the loss of people we love through that loss. It stinks for sure. I hope you are able to do fun things on Easter. And maybe celebrate your Dad's life at Easter time. And take a cruise or go somewhere he wanted to see but never got the chance? It would be a great way to honor his memory. I am sure he is very proud of the man and good person you have become. It's a lot to talk about. Thank you for making this video. Love you kiddo! 🧡 🙏
Jordan your dad sounded like a great guy and I can understand how you feel. My mother past away recently and it’s been very hard, so hard that I’m crying as I write this. God bless!🙏🏻
Sincere condolences 🙏❤
@@KarlFardman
Thank you.
Jordan this was a tough one, thanks so much for sharing. You know your dad is fine. And you will see him again. You have made a huge difference in my life! And I know many others your dad is so proud of you! 💝
That was terrible when they used to not let children visit people in the hospitals.
I agree.
Thank you Jordan for sharing with us. I know how you feel. I lost my dad to cancer when I was 11 so it has been difficult for me. The pain never goes away, but what a lovely tribute to you dad! Sending you hugs. ❤
39 is such a young age, god bless may he rip thanks for sharing Jordan its great to speak up without holding it in.
He is risen! Your dad is without pain and your journey is a tribute to his life! Thanks for sharing, God bless.
Another Buckeye, Ohio
This was my first Easter after both of my parents passed, so all I ended up doing was working all day. Much love my friend.
My Dad's name was Jerry also!
Same here my dad passed away in February I've actually lost 4 close family members since October. My younger sister passed away a week before her birthday in October my uncle John passed away on my twin daughters birthday in December my dad passed away in February and two weeks ago my favorite uncle passed away he's been fighting cancer for a long time. I try to look at it like God is gathering up my family members one by one and one day we'll all be together. My dad and I weren't nearly as close as my Mom and I were so when she died in 2019 it took a couple of years for me to snap out of sadness
I’m sorry for your loss. I’m sorry you worked all day, but it does make the day pass. I wish you so much peace until you’re all together again.
Rest In Peace Jerry 🙏
Thank you for sharing this part of your life. I'm sorry you lost your dad at such a young age. BTW, I think it's horrible that the hospital wouldn't let you see your dad when they knew it was so close to the end. It would have been hard for you and your dad if he was aware, but you may have been able to process his passing easier. Sending virtual hugs.
I am so sorry Jordan 😢 sending love to you ❤
Sorry for your loss. My grandfather passed when my mother was 11. She was very close to her dad. I hope your Easter Sundays get better. God bless!
Thank you for sharing your story. You're such a down home, likable person. I'm sure your dad is proud of you. This really got to me. ❤
I also had a terrible brother and sister who stabbed me in the back when my mom passed away and took everything out of her house before I could even get there Karma will take care of them
I cannot imagine losing a parent at such a young age. His lives on through your beautiful memories.
I love how you did your ending with "He is Risen." Beautiful. Just like your heart. God bless Jordan.
God love you for being able to discuss this with us. The time you spent with him was "quality" time. That's special, and I'm glad you had that time with him. Your dad sounds like a great guy. Just like you.😊
Easter is rough for me too. I lost my mom to breast cancer in my 20's. She was born on Easter Sunday, April 16th, so I get hit with this TWICE every year: once on Easter and once on April 16th. Then there is always the date of her death to contend with too.
What a cool guy your dad seemed the way you talk about him and the great, loving memories you have, Jordan. I think you're honouring him the right way with the right attitude, appreciating each year of your life and doing the things you enjoy when many like your dear papa aren't afforded the privilege to live a long life. If only people realised with perspective how lucky they are to have what they have, good health and the opportunity to live. But like you say, there are lessons from these life experiences if you choose to learn from them. RIP Mr. Lee sounded such a great dad!
Hi Jordan. You have my sympathies. I lost my own Dad to bladder cancer just 11 years ago. Cancer sucks. May your Dad rest in peace.
Thank you for sharing this difficult situation for you and your family.
Bless. Native Ohioan as well. Lost my mom to brain cancer too. It never gets easier and you always think you have all the time in the world with your parents. Thank you for doing this. I really think it will help a lot of your viewers out there too. Definitely don't forget to cherish the little things because someday they will be the big things. Paraphrasing from somewhere of course.
Hi Jordan. Thank you for sharing your story. I am sure your dad is watching over you and you have made him proud. God Bless you.
It's never easy to lose a parent or a sibling. I've lost them all. My dad died on New Year's Eve and his mother (my grandmother) died on Christmas Eve (different years). My mother and oldest brother died in the summer and last year my only other relative, my other brother, died the week of my birthday. I've lost my entire family and now I'm the sole survivor. Cancer is a terrible disease- my brother fought is last year. I'm lucky to have my husband- and for that I'm grateful. Holidays are terrible for me so we don't celebrate any except my anniversary and birthdays. I just can't do it anymore. Thank you Jordan for the lovely tribute to your father. Live each day like it's your last- one day you'll be right. ☺️😊🥰❤️☀️🦩🌴❤️❤️❤️
And he passed at a young age with so much life ahead of him! I am sorry for your loss. It’s one that will always be with you.
Hi Jordan, I'm so sorry to hear about your painful loss right before Easter and at a very tender age😢 I lost my Mom 4 years ago to something very sudden and my world turned upside down 😭😭😭 I hated every holiday and her Birthday was the most difficult day for me. Since then the wonderful missionaries at my church encouraged me to start a new tradition on holidays in honor of my Mom. They suggested that I do something that she used to enjoy or visit somewhere she liked to visit and she would be right there with me in spirit. They said my Mother would never want to see me so sad and traumatized by holidays or any days. It was very difficult but it does help a lot. There will always be tears 😢 but now I can smile through my tears by celebrating our memories together. Give it a try and celebrate every Easter with your Mother and family and your beautiful little dog 🐶 Take a hike or go fishing 🎣 in his honor. Make the day a time to remember the wonderful memories you had together 😊❤.
My sincerest condolences for your father's passing. As a child it's hard to digest but he's watching and he's with you, believe that. You have made him proud. It's time to enjoy Easter again and celebrate him.
Jordan I'm so very sorry. No matter how much time passes you never forget. Your dad devoted his time to you and your sister when you were with him. What a beautiful tribute to your dad. God bless you and your family. Prayers 🙏 ❤
…sending you a big Easter hug from Canada ! i’m only three years younger than your Dad…so glad and impressed you’ve turned out to be such a good man…lost my father December 9, 1973 when he was 53 and i was 19…went through such a similar experience, with our paternal grandfather being a complete asshole to our mother and disinheriting my sister and myself…the family farm, a gift from the Crown, handed down through at least four generations, was subsequently sold by “the Co.” with no consideration of my place as my father’s son and next in line of inheritance, my grandfather hating my mother and treating her terribly after Dad died, and my sister and myself because we were adopted…
Thank you for sharing your story Jordan.
I remember you telling this story in one of your earlier videos and it still breaks my heart! it's so sad when things like this happen around the holidays, because it doesn't make those holidays very joyful! I'm just thankful you were able to spend quality time with him before he passed! Thoughts are always with you Jordan, I'm sorry for your loss!
Thanks for letting us in on your personal life! 🙏 Sorry for your loss 😢 But he'd be proud of you! You seem to be doing really well for yourself.
Your father is so proud of the man you are Jordan and watches over you daily! You are an awesome guy! Thanks for sharing! God Bless!❤️❤️🐾🐾
Jordan, your enthusiasm and sincere appreciation for history resonates with so many people. The vlogs , your tours has made everyone feel as if standing right next to you
during each presentation. I always learn something new and even if I have my own knowledge of some subjects prior..you have helped with reigniting those interests again . So thank you for that especially. Your approach , giving your time is genuine and honest. Above all, you share what is on your heart.
Sharing your memories of your Dad, I’m sorry he is no longer here. However, you have honored him with expressing your love and always keep him alive inside your heart. Thank you Jordan .
Very sorry for that terrible memory Jordan, you seem like a very sweet and sensitive guy I wish I had a better relationship with my dad before he passed, hang in there brother keep the great videos coming
Oh Jordan I felt your pain hearing you speak of such vivid memories. I've lost various family members too and the same happened with my mom and some of the family rushing to get anything they could soon as she passed. It's sad what ppl will do in those situations but one thing they can never take IS the memories! Prayers for you on this very memorable day and always. 🙏
Thank u Jordan for sharing this precious story.This is such a personal story. GODBLESS U & yr family.RIP Jerry Lee.
Beautiful tribute. I lost a parent as a child as well. It changes you. I’m sure he’d be proud of you today. 💕
Thank you for sharing your dad's passing with us. You are a strong man. We love you❤
Just a wonderful honest tribute to your father. Seems like such a great guy. Even though he's been gone so long ago he's always with you and would be so proud of you. And he's in paradise with Jesus. God bless Jordan.
He is Risen indeed, alleluia! Thank you for such a personal heart breaking story.
God bless you Jordan. I lost my Father exactly one month after his 75th Birthday on 22 August 2000. Happy Resurrection Day, brother. Sorry for your loss. You have been an inspiration to many. I know cause I am one. Always enjoy your vlogs and always enjoy the pleasant way you have about you. You have such a good energy and a chipper vibe. You have brought me up before on days that I've been a little down. You see I am disabled and on oxygen with many health problems. I cannot travel much except to my doctor visits. I am in very poor health, so as a shut-in one way I deal is to kind of travel and see and experience what's out there through the inter-web and through guys like you. Shoutout from just an old country boy, here at the Gateway to the Smoky Mountains National Park: Gatlinburg, Tennessee. May the wind always be at your back and the sun on your face on all your travels. Thanks Jordan for what you do. Saying a prayer for you tonight. Again, bless you and yours. Go with Jesus. Peace and love, y'all. Keep your chin up. See ya on the next.
Thank You Jordan For Sharing Your Dad & His Story With Us, I Know It Wasn't Easy For You To Do. Just Remember Every Adventure You Have Your Dad is Right There Sharing Every Single One Of Them With You & How Very Proud He is Of You. God Bless!
Thank You for sharing your story Jordan. I know that your Dad is very proud of You.❤️❤️❤️
God bless, buddy. Thank you for sharing this. This is the first Easter everyone is gone. Last time I saw my brother last year he was in the icu with all tubes and dialysis hooked up. May 1 was out last day together when he was awake. The 6th was in the icu and he passed on the 19th. ❤ I know your dad is proud of you and with you always.
So sorry you lost such a great Dad so young. We never get over it but we learn to cope and cherish the memories. Thanks for sharing, I hope it was therapeutic for you.
Jordan, your story was so sad, I am so sorry for you and your sister! At least you have some good memories of your dad! Glad you had a good Easter though! Love your channel
So sorry for your loss. I'm sure he is looking down on you and so proud of the fine man you turned out to be.
Thank you for sharing Jordan 🙏 You and i were born closer together and we've had many parallels as far as life experiences and when you bring some of these more difficult things up, it brings similar things up for me - some resolved, others not so much. What I'm attempting to say - your happy memories help me remember some long forgotten positive experiences and your more difficult instances have helped me face some things that i would rather not (but have needed to...) I have no doubt there are many others on here who feel the same😿😁💪👍😊
When my dad died, I knew he was sick, but I never thought he would die. I was a little older than you were, but I was the opposite. The day he died, that night I slept in his bed. I missed him so bad I hugged his pillow and cried. I was an only child and a daddy's girl.
I'm so glad you aren't still an atheist. Can you just imagine how great the reunion will be? Our dads are probably up there bragging about their kids, and they can't wait to see us again. Praying for you.
Sending love and hugs to you ❤
Jordan, thanks for sharing your story.
I’m so very sorry for your loss Jordan!! Thank you for sharing this beautiful tribute to your dad with us!!
A Father’s love is a blessing Jordan. “The ones we Love don’t go away. They Walk beside us everyday, Unseen, unheard, but always Near, so loved, so missed, so very Dear.”~Author Unknown
Thank you Jordan for sharing this with all of us. May your Dad RIP 🙏🕊️🌹
Appreciate you sharing, must be really hard to talk about it on this annual occasion but its good for your health to do so mate. RIP to your dad, Jordan 🙏.
Love and strength to you Jordan I get it. My mom died the day after Easter after open heart surgery I kind of lost my joy after that, but I do remember how she made every holiday so special! Cancer sucks It has taken my best friend my true brother-in-law’s this past year and now my husband battles cancer every day is precious. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Jordan, So sorry you had to experience this heartbreak at such a young age. I lost a lovely 7 year old daughter after a short and unexpected illness. So, I know that life can be joyful one moment, and, cruel the next. We never get over such experiences, but, if we are fortunate, we can learn to live beyond them and thrive. You seem like a caring and sensitive man. May you find peace and may your life be blessed.💙
it was so well done
you
are so brave to do this !!
bless you
bless him ❤🎉
So sorry for your loss. Crying listening to your story. Praying for you and your dad. May he rest in peace.
Thanks for sharing this. Very sorry for the loss of your Dad. My father also died during Easter, on Good Friday 4 years ago. It’s comforting to hear you speak about losing loved ones on holidays and eventually celebrating Easter again. Your Dad sounded cool! Hugs
Thank you Jordan for the beautiful tribute and stories shared about your dad. Glad your heart has healed over the years. Losing a loved one is difficult to navigate especially at that age. Blessings to you 💛
I am so sorry Jordan. I cannot imagine. I am a hospice social worker and am so thankful end of life visiting rules have changed. You have made your dad so proud
Tough one to watch.
Jordan we all have challenges in our lives. I am older than you and still have challenges. You will get through it. Just take it one step at a time. LOVE your channel. GREAT content. Thank You for sharing all that you stream. Sorry for your loss. You have a good family and friends around you that is like winning the lottery. Not all of us are that fortunate.💖💖💖💖💖
OM Jordan your story just made me cry. I remember the day my dad died. it's like a nightmare that won't end. Sorry you were so young when he passed. Thanks for sharing your story. He has risen !!
Jordan thank you for sharing such a beautiful personal story. Losing someone that we love is never easy. I've lost my share of loved ones through the years and even though time passes the pain never really goes away. It's always there but we learn to live with it. I had a very hard time when I lost my father is well. Even though I was an adult when he passed, the pain was very hard. I remember my mother telling me your father wouldn't want you to be sad. He would rather you remember him with laughter and a smile then with tears.✝️🙂🙏💒
You just made me cry. I'm so sorry honey. It's always hard to lose a loved one. God bless you, chin up - your parents would have wanted it that way. I am a mom of 3 adult men/my boys & the thought of leaving them, even temporarily, hurts my heart! Hugs to you. Be brave!
Jordan, I can really feel your pain. For me, at age 8 it was Mommie who died. It was my birthday so I understand your Easter festivities. I had several birthday parties before the funeral. All the neighbors on the block gave me a birthday party. Thank you for sharing. 😘❣️🌺
I'm so sorry this happened to you, Jordan. My youngest daughter passed away during Easter. My family made me go home to rest. I woke up to my mother-in-law sitting on the foot of my bed. She told me my daughter had just passed. Worst day of my life. So glad you are able to be with your family for Easter. Thank you for sharing your story. Keeping you in my prayers during this difficult time.
Oh, Jordan. So sorry for your loss!! But you are blessed. As you said, "He is risen" on Easter. Just remember, the Easter message is all about how much the Father loved his Son. 'I'm sure your father loved you just the same!! Celebrate his life always!! You will be together again someday!!
Thank you for sharing. It’s so incredibly hard to lose a parent. I lost my Mom 2 years ago and every time I think about her I get teary eyed. I hope you had a great Easter this year. May God Bless you.
Jordan…this is why we all love you and follow you. Your heart is as big as a house and it’s such a pleasure to get to know you. I think I can say that I speak for many of us who enjoy your blog so much!
I’m sooo sorry Jordan. I just lost my dad this past November. He was my best friend. It’s been so hard . I’m now taking care of my mom and my handicapped brother. Your videos always bring me joy. Thank you for sharing your story!!
Thank you for sharing your very tender, sad story that happened to you at a very young age. It will help others feel not so alone going through loss. You are a bright light in the world and no doubt your dad is with you always.
