The final strains of “She Talks to Angels” faded away and Joey Fennell, executive pastor for Connections Church, approached the microphone. Addressing the devastated Aubrey family and about 800 distraught friends gathered in the sanctuary of Connections, Fennell began the almost impossible task of bringing some comfort to a still stunned and grieving community at Saturday’s funeral for Jordan Aubrey. In the wake of the tragic accidental death of the 17-year-old Portal High School senior, Fennell and several other speakers related the wonderful memories Jordan created in his short life and the positive impact he had on so many he encountered.
