Ralph L. Jordan III, 51, of Methuen, passed away on December 21, 2021, suddenly from complications of covid. Ralph was born in Methuen on August 12, 1970 to Ralph L Jordan Jr. and Gloria J (Slaughter) Jordan. He attended Lawrence schools, where he later received his GED. Throughout the years, he worked as a laborer for many companies. Ralph was an avid New England sports fan and enjoyed watching the games or attending them live. He also enjoyed outdoor activities like camping, kayaking, and fishing. He enjoyed everything New England had to offer from going to our extended family's home in Maine to weekend getaways at the Cape. He also enjoyed playing cribbage with his mother and her friends. He enjoyed time spent with his childhood friends, that he considered family. Most of all, he enjoyed time with his family. Family meant everything to him. Although, he had no children of his own, he "ROCKED" being the best Uncle to his 12 nieces and nephews and 16 great nieces and nephews. He was also very fond of his girlfriend's kids and grandchildren. Ralph was known for his good sense of humor, his infectious laugh among his family and friends. He had a contagious smile one you couldn't help but to smile back at. He had a heart bigger than he, always there for his family and friends in their time of need.
