Obituary of Troy Derron Jordan

Troy Derron Jordan, age 50, of Minneapolis MN, passed away peacefully, surrounded by loved ones, on Tuesday, October 20, 2020 after a courageous 7 year long battle with ALS. He was a fighter and surpassed the life expectancy of 3-5 years from diagnosis. He had a zest for life and a smile that lit up a room. He was a kind and loving spirit, loyal, selfless, giving, and a fierce protector. He had a special appreciation for good food, especially BBQ. He was a grillmaster that perfected the art of smoked chicken quarters.
