Hello Alan and Michele –
We were shocked to learn about Jordan. Our hearts, thoughts, and prayers are with you and your family.
Jordan spoke about what he believed in and was not one to stand along the sidelines. I recall articles in the Towerlight about living wages for the cleaning staff at Towson, and his comments about the resignation of Mark Perkins. I recall the Summer Send-Off at your house where he sat with incoming freshmen and handled their questions and concerns about collegiate life. I especially remember his surprise when every one of them pulled out their fake ID and asked if it was good enough to get themselves served. He handled it well – no matter what was thrown at him. I remember him as intelligent, involved, polite, and someone who was not afraid to take a stand in what he believed.
I know how very proud you are of him and what he had grown into.
Such a tragedy – such a loss for all of us.
Our deepest condolences.
Mike & Sheryl Kreps
I would like you to know that in recognition of your involvement as a founding member of the Towson University Parents Association and in memory of Jordan, the Parents Association will fund and award in 2004 the Jordan Feder Memorial Scholarship to a student of a Parents Association member.
