Dear Family, I worked with your Dad when he lived at Van Horne Manor. I always enjoyed listening to the stories from his youth which he loved to share. He was as dedicated to his family as you were to him. I am deeply sorry for your loss. Deborah

John and family I am saddened to hear of your dad's passing. I remember the first time I met Leo. It was just after I was elected to council and Leo made me feel so comfortable and gave me good advice that helped me with my new role. Just a great man and most important a great gentleman. He will be missed but not forgotten.

Joan and I want to express our condolences to Leo's family and friends. We were fortunate to get to know Leo and Thecla through our association as members of the Legislature. In addition to our serious work of representing Eastern Ontario we shared many happy social occasions with the Jordans. Leo was a tremendous constituency representative always having his finger on the pulse of his community. He worked hard for his people and loved his job as an elected MPP. We will always cherish the memories of the happy times we had with Leo and Thecla.

Dear Jordan Family
Please accept our deepest sympathies on the passing of Leo. Leo was not only a mentor, but also a friend whose council was always valued. Our community was very fortunate to have him as a representative and he demonstrated the very best in public service.
Our hope is that Leo, Thecla, Joyce and Lou are now enjoying themselves and plotting the next campaign.

Hi John, I'm sorry to hear of the passing of your father. It was a long time ago, but I have fond memories of being a young boy playing at your house and interacting with your dad. I remember him as a positive and friendly influence and a kind man.
I know you will miss him, but remember the great moments you shared through his life.

I remember Leo as a caring individual who was always a helping hand to a new member of the Legislature when I first arrived there in 1995. Eventhough we were on opposite sides of the Leg his friendship was greatly appreciated. My sincere condolences to his family.

I have just heard the sad news that Leo has passed away. Please accept my sincerest sympathy and know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I have many, many fond memories of Leo and as has been noted by so many others, he was an extremely dedicated and hard-working representative for his constituents and for the people of Ontario.

On this occasion, I want to remember as well his wonderful wife Thecla who was such a tremendous person and so very good with people. Kindest regards,

A Friend
<p>
Leo Jordan's death brings to mind many good memories of what a cherrished friend's presence in our lives means. A husband, father, competent businessman, or an elected M.P.P. - Leo was there. When first I met Leo In 1985, his work at Ont Hydro showed customers a humane contact to a rigid beaurocracy. As a friend he enjoyed the cottage,outings on the Rideau, hunting , and the fellowship of late afternoon political chats with a "social flavour". His yearly pre "Deer Hunt" serloin roasts were delicious.Despite the sudden unexpected death of Thecala his wife ;Leo continued as an active MPP- meeting constituents with empathy to help solve their problems.Leo you will be missed on our visits to Smiths Falls.Our sympathy to John,Ann Marie, Leonna,Helen and Valerie.Adieu- John and Aldona McGuire.</p>
