Jordan Willey Johnson
July 30, 1987 - October 21, 2022
Jordan Willey Johnson, passed on from this life on Friday, October 21, 2022, at the age of 35 years old, due to complications of a premature failing heart. Preceded by the passing of his mother Shawna and his father Randy, he was honored and welcomed home, embraced with all the love and light of the one infinite creator. He is survived by his daughter, Taegan Johnson. His siblings: Courtney Johnson, Adam Johnson, Ashley Eastman and Rachel Moncur. And his beloved Grandmother, Joleen S Willey.
Very few have “that thing”. Anyone who spent time around Jord, can attest to this infectious gift that he so masterfully emanated; a refined ability to make everyone laugh and fill their hearts with joy.
His passion for cars during childhood, blossomed in to a wizardry for selling them. His life was shaped by his love for nature and his zest for adventure. He flourished around people he barely knew and had a deep admiration for his friends. He had a profound love for his entire family and was so proud to be a Johnson and a Willey. Although his time here was short, he left us his greatest legacy, his beautiful and vibrant daughter, Taegan.
So may we grieve together to honor life. May we love each other to honor Jord!
Spread your wings brother! Leave behind fear, hope, anger, spilled milk. Take silence only. Sky, wind, sunrise after the rain. Forget the rest. Spread your wings brother. Rest from yourself.
A celebration of life will be on Friday, November 18, 2022 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at Starks Funeral Parlor, 3651 South 900 East, Salt Lake City. Guests are encourage to park on the north side of our home.
In Loving Memory
Dear Family, we all know that Jordan was growing up with a family that loved and cared about him deeply. Your hope for him was wide and if he could have soared without the pitfalls he would have had a beautiful Adult life. I am saddened by the loss of what could have been. There was obviously things in his life that were learning experiences and my hope that is in the afterlife I believe in he will have gain great insight and experiences that will let his soar there. My love and best to you all. Unfortunately we are unable to come and celebrate with you his journey both in this life and next. We will be planting a tree that will develop the roots and grow strong to nourish and feed his and our prodigies. Love and comfort and hope to you all. ❤️ Janice and Dave Nelson
