Jordan Peevey

Hi, my name is Cara and I’m the partner of Jordan Peevey. We have one son together who is 22 months old and I am currently pregnant with our second. Jordan tragically passed away on November 29th at 16:39 at 30 years old, with his loved ones. Due to his young age he was able to be an organ donator and will hopefully be able to help a couple other families not have to endure what we are enduring now.

His death was unexpected and was a shock to everyone. He was a kind and loving partner and my best friend. We did everything together. He was also the best father to our son and wanted to keep extending our family, when I said I was thinking three he always said that he was thinking even more. He had the best crooked smile and his laugh was infectious. At 6’ 5” he was a gentle giant who had a big heart and those who knew him got to experience it. Our neighbours knew him best from hearing him singing nightly to our son while rocking him in the rocking chair in his room, in the warm months when the windows were always open. He might not have had the most in-tune voice but it was beautiful and he sure could put our baby to sleep, usually within minutes. He taught our son his first animal sound very young, from reading his nightly bedtime book. It was an elephant and now every time our son sees an elephant he does the sound Jordan taught him, which no matter how hard I try I can never replicate. He took care of his family and was honestly one of the best humans you’d ever meet. If anyone would like more stories about him please let me know as I have hundreds.

I would normally never think of creating something like this but now being a single mom of one and soon to be two next year I don’t know where else to turn too. Jordan didn’t have any life insurance and due to him being so young he didn’t have any savings. I’m really struggling right now and was already dealing with fatigue and sickness from pregnancy and now due to my mental state I’m not sure when I will be able to return to work. Although I have a bit of coverage for myself I still won’t have Jordan’s portion of his bills, or his contributions. Let alone his second pair of loving hands to switch off with. We own a house with a mortgage and have bills that him and I were able to afford but now without him it will be very very hard and I’m currently trying to figure out if moving back to my mom’s is the only thing that can be done and selling our house. Which has so many memories made in it. I would also really like to be able to get a headstone and plot for him so that our children can visit him and be able to have that in their lives. Somewhere that they can go and feel at ease to talk to their dad, as well as for me.

He just passed away and I’m in pieces, I don’t know what I’m going to do without him. I’m trying to mourn but I’m also panicking about bills and work and I’m just at a loss of what to do.

Thank you everyone, I wish you all had gotten the chance to meet him. He was truly an amazing person.
