Jordan as i sit here watching these videos i can not help but have tears roll down my face. We did not spend much time together, or have much dealings with one another, but one thing i will proudly say is you are an amazing father. I watched you grow from the outside looking in when my mokopuna Lilly-May was born, she and ALL your children were the light in your heart. May you rest peacefully, and watch over your family till you all are reunited again one day. To the Harvey whanau, my heart is so broken for you all.... All my love Tania xx

Jordie: this is so hard to write and nothing I seem to write is fitting enough. I feel you are not far away just out of sight. Past pictures of you make me remember what a beautiful young boy you were and to the many people past and present and the pets you loved. You were always caring and energetic and meant so much to everyone you touched. The celebration of your life was big and I know many others could not make it who were there in spirit. You have always been a very straight up young boy, which continued with you into parenthood too. I remember you sent a message to me saying you would do anything for your children, which made me love you even more. You were taken far too soon. Till we meet again Dad

Jordan, for almost 6 years of our lives; you were my best friend and my other half. We went on many adventures together that I will cherish deeply. The biggest adventure of all was navigating our way through life as parents. You had this flow where things just came to you so naturally. Things weren’t always sunshine and rainbows between us but our top priority always stayed the same. Our boys. Fast forward 2 years and co-parenting became so easy. We barely had disagreements and we could share a laugh between each other like old times. You were always there for me when I needed to talk or if I ever needed help. I don’t think my love for you ever went away, it just didn’t seem as bright anymore. I’m so scared to continue this life without you telling me that I’m a good mum and I’m doing a good job. But I promise to honour your love for these kids and to never let them forget just how amazing you are as a Dad.

Jordy, we are gutted mate, no longer will there be a quiet knock at the door, it being opened and you coming through the door, Kapia beside himself to see you, your hello hug for Auntie Ang, then disappearing to the man cave with a rattle of bottles, joining D and Juda, talking shit, talking through the real stuff, recounting the adventures and mischief, making plans for outings and more adventures, chilling to some music, ribbing each other, decompressing, coming back upstairs to make sure I wasn't asleep yet and would drop you boys in town, hearing your laughter through the floor. We will sorely miss it all. Thank you for being a fantastic mate for our boy Juda. You two and your energy, so full of get up and go, get up and do it, kids and all, you were a great match and had each others backs, no one could ask for better. Know you will never be forgotten nor not loved, we will all miss you so much and struggle to believe the new reality. Juda tried to put salad on his dinner plate the other night and it ended up on the floor, we laughed and said that was Jordy, eat the meat man lol. Love you Jords, will miss you forever.

We will miss your infectious laugh over the fence, and the giggles from your kiddies. We will make sure we give mum all the help she needs. Rest in peace. You’ll be missed xx

Sending love and condolences to Shane as well as Mark, Daniel, Alana and Jordans children and wife. We may not keep in close contact but its an incredibly sad day to lose ones father, brother, partner and son. Our thoughts are with you all. May Jordan Rest in Peace.
