To the Editor:

The Lopes and the Redd family would like to thank the Wareham community for helping our family during our time of need.

Special thanks to Tom Strom of Kool Kone, Maria LaPorta of Best Friends Preschool, the Kool Kone family, and all of the volunteers.

Cassandra and I always had a special bond with Jordan. We had no idea how many people Jordan had touched in his short life.

Jordan was special, and loved by us as well as so many people.

I am thankful for the friendships Jordan formed since we moved to Wareham.

Sincerely,

Joslyn Redd and Cassandra Lopes

Jordan's mother and sister

Jordan Lopes, 20, of Wareham, passed away following a car accident on Nov. 17.
