Jordan Malik Newman , my FL my forever friend as well.  I love you dearly boy. I’m so sorry I couldn’t make it to anything but I could NOT see you that way or really even say goodbye. I’ve been in tears and heartbroken for days I literally just talked to you and then in the snap of a finger you were gone. I’m so sorry Jordan 💔 I will never forget this and or you ever in my life. I’m so glad I had the chance to meet you and experience the most unbreakable bond ever since 10/4/2013 ❤️ I’m glad you left 2 handsome sons in this world I don’t know them but I hope they grow up to be as honorable and respectful as you. I’m so upset by this Jordan but I hope you hear me up there cause I know you’re in a great place right now. And although I feel like it wasn’t your time to leave I have to come to terms with it and it breaks my heart my family misses you and we are so upset by this but we love you Jordan. I love you Jordan. I’m so sorry😪

Jordan, Thank you so much for being such an amazing friend to me.  Thank you for coming to my defense no matter what. I will forever miss you!!! Thank you for coming to see me last weekend and being able to talk to me for hours to be able to hear your story that last conversation will forever be cherished. Love you!

No matter how embarrassing it was to show up dressing up for school spirit activities, you always had fun doing it. You were our spirit!

that spot was always class of 2019, and you will always pop up with your friends doing goofy actions. Thank you for being yourself!

I will miss you with all my heart! Thank you for being the most beautiful, smart, well hearted, brave, funniest human being! Thank you for being there at my worst I will never forget you. I always wanted the best for you, and I’m sorry I couldn’t save you.  All the promises we made I will still keep them alive. All our goals we discuss, I will accomplish it for you. Forever in my heart! Love you Jordan!

Jordan, I am so blessed to have gotten the chance to call you my friend. You were one of the first people to be nice to me & bring me out of my shell in our Barnett days. You always spoke so much good into other’s literally the most positive person I’ve ever known with such a genuine soul. I appreciate that no matter the distance you remained YOU & still checked in. You will be missed heavily. My condolences to Jordan’s parents & family, you did an amazing job at raising such a kind man who loved everybody. 
We love you forever Jordan ❤️

Jordan was a genuine soul who loved everyone around him. He always knew how to light up a room. One of the greatest friends I’ve ever had, I’m so glad I was blessed to know him and experience him for all that he is, was, and will always be.

I could literally call you whenever 😢 even at work you would answer and just listen to me go on on about absolutely nothing 😂. I’m gonna miss that smile and that goofy laugh you telling me how short I am.🙄😂 I’m really really gonna miss you so much. I want send my condolences to his parents he was a beautiful person and was raised wonderful he was a great example of what a young man and father was to his peers.

My condolences to the family & friends of Jnu in this time. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. ❤️ J, Thank you for always being so kind especially to me as a new comer to Bowie. You were one of the first people who opened up to me and accepted me for who I am. I will forever be grateful for our conversations and to have experienced a friendship with you. Fly high J you are in God’s hands now.

I was very blessed to be able to call someone like Jordan a best friend. He has changed my life so much for the better he truly was an angel in disguise.

Thank you Jordan. You were such an amazing person who ALWAYS showed up for everyone. Thank you for being my best friend all through high school. As the years passed we headed down different paths but every time I checked on you or you checked on my son and I, it felt like no time had passed. I pray your boys hear all the amazing stories about you. We all love you and miss you so much already. And to his parents and the rest of his family, we can never thank you all enough for even sharing him with us. He truly brought so much light, love and laughter to everyone he’s ever known.

I met Jordan in high-school he was always so charismatic , every time he walked in a room the whole vibe will change he would literally brighten up wherever he stepped foot in, he didn’t realize it but he was loved by many and will be missed by many , he was so pure and had a big heart , he made sure everyone around him was straight , it broke me to know what happened , I wish I could’ve asked him one last time if everything was okay, I will always miss him and I’m just grateful I had a chance to meet such a wonderful person like Jordan in my life , I know your little boys will be just as great as you! And I want to send my condolences to your parents,  your brother and your loved ones 🙏 you will forever be missed you impacted many lives and that will never be forgotten , until we meet again jnewskiii ✍🏼🕊❤️

Your mom and I love you and we will miss you son!

We will make sure your boys know how great their dad was!

Jordan I had the pleasure of meeting you through my daughter. Your ❤️ was so pure and that smile was contagious. I remember hiring you at my company and you would come in with that amazing smile on your face cracking jokes  . And to his family and love ones I am really sorry to hear about your loss. Sending my deepest condolences to you.🙏🏾🙏🏾

Since I heard the news, I've struggled with the right words to say.  To say Jordan was a light is a huge understatement.  He was the most respectful, humble, and delightful parent I've encountered. Truly wise beyond his years.  I admired how involved and how intentional he was with Pierre.  In the over 12 years of having a daycare, it is rare to have a young man his age show the dedication he did as a parent and an all-around great human being.  I will miss his infectious laugh, charisma, and bright smile he brought with him every day to Destined for Greatness Christian Academy.  That young man loved his babies dearly, and I'm thankful to have encountered him!  May God wrap his arms around you all and provide a peace that only HE can provide. Much love to you.

My heart goes out to your family. Jordan was one of my Barnett kiddos, and he was an amazing young man. I have never forgotten him and never will. Sending love, Kirsten Foti

To experience someone like jordan in this life, you were  extremely lucky. He was the most funny, caring, kind, and loving person i’ve ever met. I knew the day we became friends that he would be a special person in my life and it’s so painful to know that he’s no longer here with us. I’m gonna miss laughing with him till we cried just talking about any and everything. May he forever rest peacefully 🤍 i’m sending all my love and prayers to his family and loved ones 🫶🏼

Jordan was like a nephew to me. I’m so sorry for your loss

This young man was one of the most amazing fathers that I had a chance to meet at Destined for Greatness Christian Academy. He always came in with a smile on his face and was one of the best most loving fathers with Pierre. There was not a day that he walked in that building that we didn’t discuss his upcoming baby.  He was so excited. I told him that I was so proud of him ,the man and father he was and his  presence in his son life. He had the biggest smile on his face. He was proud to be a father.  He was a beautiful soul. We thank you for sharing him with us. I am praying for your strength  through out this journey.

I remember the first day I met you little bro, we were in training class for frontier acting a fool. They did say we was the best class ever! Since then you been like family to me, even more like a lil brother. I know you wouldn’t want me to take it this hard but even though we weren’t mad at each other I should’ve said something and now I live with the resentment. 
              Love you Newski 🕊️,
                          Khai

This was a Thanksgiving Dinner  at our grandmother and grandad’s home! I am so glad I got the opportunity to attend one of these special moments with Jordan. Rest easy cuz! Grandma got you now. Love your big cuz, Trina Frierson! ❤️

Our G2 Family will not be the same without Newski . I know we’ll find comfort in each other and we”ll get through this together. R.I.P ❤️

My baby cousin.. you always wanted to be right with us no matter the age gap and you and Justin were literally always right there. I wish I could get one of your infectious hugs and hear that “I love you cuz” when we speed in to get the kids 10 minutes before the daycare closes right about now lol.. But I love you my baby, I’m going to make sure JoJo keeps that right hook in tacked.. We love you so much!! You are missed already

Mommy loves you baby and we will miss seeing that smile and big heart. Mommy and Daddy will raise your boys to be just like daddy! Until we meet again  💔!

Jnew you are the kindest soul to have ever been placed on this earth. You impacted a lot of people with your constant positivity and bright smile. Thank you for being you. 🤍🕊️much love Newman.
