In Memoriam

Jordan Kimball Fowers 1982 ~ 2006
I'm not sure how many of you know, but Jordan Fowers passed away on January 13, 2006. It struck me deeply when I saw his obituary in the paper. I knew him since elementary school, although we were not close in high school. I always knew he was special, and obviously he was needed in heaven. I feel honored to have known him. He has a website if you would like to share any memories or pictures with his family and friends. Click here.



His family has also set up the "Jordan Kimball Fowers Memorial Scholarship Fund " at BYU in his memory. This scholarship will assist students from Mexico or other Latin countries. FOr more info, click here.


Obituary
(as published in the Deseret Morning News and Salt Lake Triburne on Tuesday, January 17, 2006 )

One of the world's great stripling warriors left this earth to fight the good fight on the other side. Jordan Kimball Fowers passed to his next estate on January 13, 2006, due to complications from open heart surgery, with his family and dear friends by his side. Jordan was born on a sunny day, September 23, 1982, in Murray, Utah. He is the son of Lawrence "Sam" and Jana Larson Fowers.


He brought immense joy to his family and we rarely saw him without a smile on his face. He grew up in Farmington and one of his greatest delights was to run through the hills of that beautiful town. He graduated from Davis High School with a perfect 4.0, giving his all to his schooling, and the drum line of the Davis marching band. He then went on to BYU with a full scholarship for three years, interrupting his studies with a two year mission for the LDS Church to Chihuahua, Mexico. He loved his mission, the Mexican people, and serving the Lord. While attending school fulltime he sang in the BYU Men's Chorus, taught Spanish at the Missionary Training Center and worked in the Provo Temple. All of these experiences gave him great joy.
Jordan is adored by his family consisting of his parents, his brothers and sisters: Risa and Jeremy Karras of Des Moines, Iowa; Brandon and Shannon Fowers of Yorba Linda, California; Brittany and Brian Conde of Seaside, Oregon; Katie and Sean Dickson of Layton, Utah; Summer and Tyler Barrett of Cameron Park, California; Jillian and Andrew Cluff of Clinton, Utah; Karley Fowers and Hunter Fowers of Farmington, Utah; his seven nieces and nephews, his grandmother, Jeanne Larson Hatch of Mesa, Arizona; and hundreds of cousins, aunts, and uncles. He has joined his angel grandparents: Rolf Larson, E. LeRoy Hatch, Wilford and Irene Fowers.


Jordan kept numerous earthly journals, and every page contains his testimony of his Savior, Jesus Christ, and of the restored gospel. Now we understand why he needed only a short time to complete his mission on this earth. The last week of his life as he prepared for the heart surgery, he spent his days also preparing to leave us. He read extensively in the scriptures, visited every day with friends and family, sang hymns with gusto, and went to the Holy Temple. His whole life was dedicated to the Savior and to making others happy. He was so well prepared that all the fasting and prayers of hundreds could not keep him here. Each day will take us further from our grief at the separation, and, hopefully, bring us closer to the Lord and to the time when we will see Jordan again.


Funeral services will be Saturday, January 21, 2006, 11:00 a.m., at the Farmington 14th Ward, Steed Creek Chapel, 347 S. 200 W., Farmington, Utah. Friends may call at the Russon Farmington Mortuary, 1941 N. Main Street, Farmington, from 6-8 p.m. on Friday, January 20, and on Saturday 9-10:30 a.m. Interment will be in the Farmington City Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the General Missionary Fund.


"O that I were an angel, and could have the wish of mine heart, that I might go forth and speak with the trump of God, with a voice to shake the earth, and cry repentance unto every people!"
