“While traveling this weekend for one of the biggest weekends of my career I lost my grandfather,” he wrote on Instagram last night. “He was one of the most strongest hard working, yet humble men I’ve ever known. This weekend I could’ve used the excuse that my grandfather passed and cancelled everything, but I knew that he wouldn’t [have] wanted me to do so.” https://www.instagram.com/p/BvxfNasHdw_

We commend Jor’dan for his strength and are keeping him and his family in our prayers. 

Watch the amazing show he put on that night he found out…
