Jordan David Todd

It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that the Todd family announces the recent passing of Jordan David Todd on Friday, May 31, 2019.

He is survived by his father, James Edward Todd, and predeceased by his mother, Janet McCullough Todd of Southern Shores, North Carolina. Jordan leaves behind his three sons, Caleb David, Derek Pierce, and Ethan Edward; as well as their mother, Jesse Wright Todd. He is survived by his siblings Diane Cleary, Debbie Klapprodt, Jaqueline Todd-Morel, Jill Teears, James Todd, Jr, Jesse Todd, Robert Entwistle, Jonathan Todd, Jennifer Carlsen, Jeremy Todd, Joy Vezie, and Katie Todd. Jordan also leaves behind many nieces, nephews and brothers and sisters-in law.

“Davy,” as his family knew him, was born August 8, 1976 in Camden, New Jersey and was raised in Haddon Heights, NJ along with his many siblings and the numerous foster children whom his parents cared for. Shortly after graduating high school in Manteo, NC, he served our country with pride as a paratrooper and mortar man in the United States Army’s 501st Airborne Division. Following his time in the military, Jordan returned to the Outer Banks of North Carolina to support and raise his family. To all who knew Jordan, they understood his love and passion for the military, fishing, surfing and cooking. He will be sorely missed by all who loved him.

A graveside memorial will be held on Saturday, June 22 at 4:00 p.m. at the Southern Shores Cemetery where he will be laid to rest by his mother’s side. A reception will follow at the Kitty Hawk Baptist Church.
