Family, friends gather to honor man killed in southwest Las Vegas valley motorcycle crash
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Family and friends gathered Sunday to honor a man who was hit and killed while riding his motorcycle in the southwest Las Vegas valley.
Jordon Dodder, 37, was riding his motorcycle to work Wednesday morning when a car hit him at the intersection of Russell and Lindell roads. Police said the car failed to stop at the stop sign.
With nearly 60 people in attendance, friends and family came out to support the Dodder family as they mourned the loss of their loved one. Jordan's wife, Kelly Dodder, and his father, Greg Dodder, shared the impact he had on their lives.

'Every morning I wake up and then in the middle of the night, I'm thinking he is going to walk through the doors,' Kelly Dodder said. 'He always let me know how beautiful and amazing I was. People like that don't exist anymore.'
'I have zero regrets and my relationship with him was wonderful,' Greg Dodder said.
Jordan Dodder's co-worker and friend, Kevin Irani, told 8 News Now that Dodder has always shown up for him, who is a fellow bike rider himself.
'He loved his motorcycle and the renegade freedom that came with it. The turnout is impressive and I'm glad to see it. It touches my heart because it shows all the people who care for him,' Irani said.
Police said the person driving the car that hit Jordan Dodder stayed at the scene and showed no signs of impairment. A GoFundMe has been created for the family.
