An 11-year-old Fall River boy who die on Thursday is being remembered by his family.

Morton Middle School 6th grader Jordan Carlitos Morocho Carchi was an extremely bright and energetic soul who was admired for his enthusiasm and vibrant personality, according to his family.

“He had a keen interest in video games and enjoyed playing them. Additionally, he enjoyed creating his own YouTube videos, showcasing his creativity and talents. Jordan had a special gift for entertaining others, and his love for life was evident in everything he did.”

“Jordan’s presence will be dearly missed. His memory will be a source of comfort and love for his family, who will carry him in their hearts forever.”

He is survived by his loving father, Carlos Morocho, and his devoted mother, Aida Carchi, who cherished him deeply. He is also survived by his loving sister, Lisette Morocho Carchi, and his aunt, Maria Carchi. He leaves behind many aunts and uncles. He also leaves his faithful companion,  Chase.

Services will be announced at a later time. 

Fall River Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Tracy Curley issued the following statement on Friday:

“It is with tremendous sadness that we inform our school community of the sudden and unexpected death of a sixth-grade Morton Middle School student following a medical emergency yesterday.

On behalf of everyone at the Fall River Public Schools, our thoughts, heartfelt condolences and support go out to the student’s family and loved ones as they deal with this terrible tragedy.

We know that this unexpected loss will raise questions and concerns, and will elicit emotional responses among our students and throughout our school community. In an effort to ensure students learned of the tragedy from a trusted adult, the news was communicated to families and staff yesterday evening and the news was communicated to students again today during homeroom.

We will make every effort to support our students and staff as needed and will have additional grief counselors readily available to support anyone who may be struggling with this news or who feels personally impacted by this tragedy.

As the family and loved ones grieve, we ask that their privacy be respected at this time.”

A cause of death was not immediately available.
