Jordan L. Mapes

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved son, brother and grandson, Jordan L. Mapes on November 23, 2024. He was a light in this world, and now we ask to continue shining Jordan’s light by carrying it within us in our own lives. 

Jordan, age 22 of Corning, NY was born June 12, 2002, the son of the late Nathan T. Mapes and Nancy E. (Sands) Mapes.

Jordan was a gentle giant and his heart was bigger than the universe. He was a great friend to many, loved working on his car, and he was our go to with everything computer related. Every week he would give his nephew Owen a Hot Wheel car. He had a kind soul, always thoughtful and very funny.
