Emery Jordan

We created a memorial page to celebrate the life of Emery Jordan (BFA '23, UIC). Collecting your stories and memories of Emery will offer great comfort to their friends and community. As we plan for a gathering, we will post further information. Thank you for your thoughts, condolences, images, messages, and memories.

OBITUARY
Emery Jordan passed away on October 1, 2022. It is heartbreaking that we will never get to see Emery - who was exceptionally talented, motivated, and intelligent - reach their potential as an artist and scholar. They had many plans for the future that they had been excited to discuss. With love and remembrance, let's celebrate the time we had together.
