About Jordan M. Ritchie

Jordan M. Ritchie was truly an angel sent from above when he entered this world on January 17, 2013.   His smile and laugh were infectious as he was welcomed by everyone he met.  He was extremely active and loved to be outside.  Traveling, climbing and swimming were his favorite activities.  Diagnosed with autism at 2 1/2, he faced developmental challenges throughout his life and met each one with an incredible amount of energy and persistence.  In February of 2023, Jordan fell ill to three separate viruses.  He was soon after diagnosed with FIRES (Febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome).  After a 30-day stay in the hospital, Jordan succombed to a hospital infection.  The strength and resiliciency with which he fought will inspire many.  While his stay here was far too short, his impact on the Three Village Community will be felt forever.  He is missed by many, but we will cherish the joy and laughter he brought to us all.  We are honored to start this foundation in memory of Jordan.  He was truly one in a million and we were so blessed to call him ours.
