Donald “Todd” Jordan, age 54, passed away March 19, 2024, at his home. He was born August 31, 1969, in Chapel Hill, NC to Donald Larry and Phyllis Sturdivant Jordan and was the oldest of 3 children.
It was clear from an early age that Todd was one with many talents and gifts. His talents and creativity lead him to a career in electric motor manufacturing. Working side by side with his father and brother, Todd designed, fabricated, and maintained numerous electric motor projects. All the while, further using his creativity to design and build beautiful furniture and construction projects, which he ultimately made another career out of running his own construction company. Many in the community have been the recipient of his beautiful craftsmanship.
Todd also had a passion for anything with an engine. From two wheels to four wheels, he has ridden, raced, restored, or built from scratch just about everything with an engine. His prized projects were a full restoration of a 1978 Harley-Davidson Super Glide, a 1979 Trans AM and a dune buggy that he designed and built.
However, his true prized thing in life and what he was the proudest of were his two children Kaylin and Taylor. He took so much pride in seeing their accomplishments throughout life. Whether it was cheering them on at a motorcycle race, a softball game, or teaching them new skills, you could be assured he was the loudest supporter.
Todd was a beloved son, brother, father, grandfather, and a cherished friend to many. One that never met a stranger, Todd had an infectious personality that drew people in, and he will truly be missed by all that knew him.
In addition to his parents, Todd is survived by one son; Kaylin Jordan of Roxboro, NC, one daughter; Taylor Jordan of Oxford, NC, three grandchildren; Ryder Jordan, Brinlee Brogden, Jax Brogden, one brother, Brad Jordan of Chapel Hill, and one sister, Amy Jordan of Siler City.
