Jordan Rubel

In Loving Memory of
JORDAN RUBEL
May 19, 1991 – May 23, 2025
With a very heavy heart, we share the passing of Jordan Rubel on Friday, May 23, 2025, at the age of 34.
Jordan brought creativity and humour into every space he entered. He worked for the City of Winnipeg and found joy early in life doing landscaping and hands-on work that connected him to the outdoors.
As a gifted musician and artist, Jordan was known for his talent on the guitar and for the beautiful paintings he lovingly created for his family. Jordan had a great sense of humour and could often be found rewatching or quoting episodes of The Office, a show he loved for its wit and sarcasm. He embraced an active lifestyle and took pride in maintaining his physical health.
Jordan had a brilliant memory, especially for trivia. He was unbeatable when it came to Harry Potter, and Disney facts. He was a passionate sports fan, never missing a Jets or Leaf’s game and always cheering them on with unwavering loyalty. He especially loved going to Bomber games with his dad, sharing their love of football and creating memories that will be cherished forever. Jordan shared a special connection with his mother, they loved Christmas baking and laughing at Seinfeld episodes or even just hanging out on a Sunday afternoon. He never hesitated to be his authentic, hilarious self. His strong bond with his family and closest friends was evident in everything he did, and his presence will be missed beyond measure.
Jordan is lovingly remembered by his loving parents, Sharon and Dave; his siblings, Julie and Jesse (Kina); his grandmothers, Olga Sorby and Patricia Rubel; his loving aunts and uncles (Mark and Manon; Jaime and Kelly; Sandy and Palmer), his cousins Jacqui and Bryson, his Toronto family, his Dauphin family, and his beloved cat, Luna. He was pre-deceased by his grandfathers, Tom Rubel and Ron Sorby. The family cottage at Lac Lu was Jordan’s happy place, where their family will forever hold dear the time they spent together. Jordan’s laughter, stories and spirits filled the air, leaving behind memories the family will always treasure.
Jordan will be remembered for his strength, toughness, his heart, and his enduring love for the people around him.
A Celebration of Life will be held at 11:00am on Sunday, July 13, 2025 at the Centro Caboto Centre, located at 1055 Wilkes Ave.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Winnipeg Humane Society, or a charity of your choice.
Jordan’s family kindly requests that all of his friends and relatives take a few minutes to honour his memory by sharing photos, memories, and stories, using the comment section on this page.

Dear Sharon and Dave, We are heartbroken at the tragic passing of Jordan. A child could not have been more loved and cherished than Jordan. We remember the many heartfelt converstations we had with you on Hollington celebrating our sons' achievements as they found their passion in life. Your devotion, encouragement, and support gave Jordan the determination and skills to achieve all that he dreamed of. We only wish our words bring you some solace and strength as you go on this tragic journey that no parent ever wants to be on. You are in our hearts and prayers. Pat and Greg Ozechowsky

Sharon and Dave...so sorry to hear of Jordan's passing. My son Evan informed me this morning.
I have fond memories of Jordan from coaching him in hockey for Fort Garry. He was very respectful of his coaches and a pleasure to coach. I admired his grit and determination on the ice and his relationship with his team mates.
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

Dear Sharon, Dave, Jesse, Julie, Family and Friends,
My heartfelt sympathy to each of you. It is a tragedy that it is a life gone way too soon.
Over the last few years Jordan has been in touch many times on the phone or in person. He was soooo excited and happy when he got Luna. His visits and conversations are fond memories I will treasure.
May your beautiful memories help ease your sorrow.💕

Dear Sharon, Dave, and the Rubel family,
I was deeply saddened to learn of Jordan’s passing. While I didn’t know Jordan personally, I have such fond memories of working with Sharon during my time volunteering at the Winnipeg Humane Society. Her warmth and dedication always made such an impression on me.
Reading about Jordan’s life, it’s clear he was a remarkable young man who brought joy, creativity, and laughter to everyone around him. The special bond he shared with his family, especially those Christmas baking sessions and Sunday afternoons with Sharon, speaks to the love you all cherished together.
Please know you are in my thoughts during this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy.

Thinking of your family during this difficult time. It didn't feel real hearing the news of Jordan's passing. I have so many great memories growing up accross the street from the Rubel family. I remember when Jordan pretended to be "the muscrat" at our birthday parties at Fort Whyte Centre when he would go under the table and surprise the other kids by going after their feet lol.
Jordan will be missed and loved always.
Big hugs to the Rubel family.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, this loving, beautiful photo tribute says it all. There are no words for how saddened I am for you, Sharon, Dave, Jesse and Julie at Jordan's loss. His spirit and memory will live on in all of those whose lives he touched. I have fond memories of Jordan growing on Hollington Road, the gingerbread houses our kids smashed on the driveway at Christmas, the swims in the neighbours' pool, mini soccer, to name a few. And those Leafs still haven't brought home the cup! As a young man Jordan was a huge help to me with landscaping at my home. He was always there with a smile and tremendous strength and a drive to work. He obviously had so much passion for landscaping and being outdoors. Jordan will be dearly missed by so many. Sending love to you all, Martha xoxo
