Ryan Jordan

Portland – Ryan Jordan, 46, passed away October 2, 2025 at Maine Medical Hospital after a short illness, surrounded by family.

Ryan was born on November 16, 1978, first of four children to Timothy and Pamela Jordan.

He was a devoted husband, proud father, caring brother, adoring uncle, loving son and loyal friend. He is survived by his wife Stephanie and their two incredible sons Bailey and Quinn. He is also survived by his loving parents, Tim and Pam; his mother-in-law Carol; his brother-in-law Jeff and partner Kelly; his sister Meghan and husband Sal; his brother Shawn and wife Stephanie; his brother Joel and partner Amber; and his nieces and nephews, DiMaggio, Brynn, Atlas, Hazel, and Rowan.

To his friends and family Ryan will be remembered for his quick wit, humor, and gentle empathetic nature. In his own quiet way, he was the light-hearted epicenter of any social gathering. He magnetized and inspired. He led by example. He was ever a warm and reliable presence.

To the broader community Ryan will be remembered for his leadership and contributions to Portland youth sports. Over the years he dedicated time to Deering High School Boys Basketball (Assistant Coach), Portland Little League (President), Portland Youth Football League (President) and various other coaching and volunteer responsibilities. For Ryan, these experiences were always about more than a love of sports, which he had in spades. He was fostering an environment for young people to share in his passion and find fulfillment through discipline and commitment. He was a natural-born leader and role model to all those he coached and mentored.

Ryan is predeceased by his good friend Brendan Conway, who passed away in 2013, also tragically too young. Following Brendan’s passing Ryan led and organized an annual 3-on-3 basketball tournament in honor of Brendan and to raise funds for a scholarship in his name.

Relatives and friends are invited to join Ryan’s family at the new Conroy-Tully Walker Cremation, Funeral & Gathering Center, 300 Allen Avenue, Portland, on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, from 4:00 to 7:00 PM, where a Remembrance Ceremony will begin at 7:00 PM. A Graveside Service will be held on Thursday, October 9, 2025 at 11:00 AM at Evergreen Cemetery, Stevens Avenue, Portland.
