AcknowledgmentPerhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a floral piece; if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you prayed a sincere prayer or came to pay a call. Perhaps you sang a cheerful song; if so, we heard it all. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words, as any friend could say. Perhaps you prepared a tasty dish, or maybe furnished a car. Perhaps you rendered a service unseen, near at hand or from afar. Whatever you did to console our hearts, by word or deed or touch, whatever
was the kindly part, we thank you, oh so very much. We just want to say thank you.

Obituary“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear
no evil; for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.” Psalm 23
Jordyn Alexandria Coby was born October 11, 2002, to Daphyne M. Jackson and Henry L. Coby in Dallas, Texas.
Jordyn enjoyed her childhood, growing up in Dallas, where she attended DeSoto Private School from pre-k to sixth grade. As she entered junior high and high school, she attended Gateway Charter Academy. One of Jordyn’s passions was art. She loved to draw and was fascinated with photography. She also enjoyed running track and loved taking care of her pets.
Along with her mom, Jordyn was a faithful attendee of Inspiring Body of Christ, where her pastor was Rev. Rickie G. Rush.
Preceding Jordyn in death are her paternal grandfather and grandmother, Walter and Emma Coby, and her maternal grandmother, Thenia M. Williams. Left to remember Jordyn fondly are her mom, Daphyne M. Jackson; her dad, Henry L. Coby; her sisters, Ashley Reed and Amber Coby; her brother, Alondric Harrington; her aunt, Elaine Simington (Richard); her uncles, Timothy Echols (Bernita), Jerrell Echols (Cecelia), and Kent Coby (Donnielle); and a host of other relatives and friends.

Letter from HeavenWhen tomorrow starts without me
And I’m not here to seeIf the sun should rise and find your eyes
Filled with tears for me
I wish so much you wouldn’t cryThe way you did today
While thinking of the many things We didn’t get to say
I know how much you love meAs much as I love you
And each time you think of meI know you’ ll miss me too
When tomorrow starts without meDon’t think we’re far apart
For every time you think of meI’m right here in your heart
(Author Unknown)
For Jordynfrom Mom and Dad
There can be no goodbyes for usIt’ d be too painful, dear
Our connection still lives onAlthough you’re far away from here
I miss the times that we once hadBut one day, once again
I’ ll hold you close and laugh with youI just wish I knew when
Each moment ‘til that day arrivesUntil my time is through
I’ ll miss you more than words can sayAnd always think of you
I’ ll look for you among the starsAnd each dawn’s pastel sky
And whisper words of love to youBut never say goodbye.
