Jordon Rice, 13, was terrified of water and yet when a rescuer tried to save him from the top of a vehicle in a city outside of Brisbane, Australia, while flood waters gushed all around them, Jordon told the rescuer to take his younger brother, Blake, first. Blake, 10, survived the waters that day, thanks to his brother, but Jordon and his mom did not. By the time the rescuer took Blake to safety, the vehicle had been swept away and Jordon and his mom, Donna, drowned. Today Jordon is being called a tragic hero in the City of Toowoomba, Australia where flooding has devastated the City.
Courage in the face of fear helps define a hero and today I am grateful for the many heros in the world. They help us live in safety and in peace.
Jordon Rice you are a brave young man and you will never be forgotten.
God bless you.
