Displaying Product "Short Description"

How can I display a products “Short Description” along with the product name in the cart, checkout, and order confirmation (order details) after checking out?

Currently I am able to display it in the cart and checkout, but it disappears after the order is processed and the “Order Details” screen appears.

Here is the code I am using inside my theme’s function.php

add_filter( ‘woocommerce_get_item_data’, ‘wc_checkout_description_so_15127954’, 10, 2 );

function wc_checkout_description_so_15127954( $other_data, $cart_item )
{
$post_data = get_post( $cart_item[‘product_id’] );
$other_data[] = array( ‘name’ => $post_data->post_excerpt );
return $other_data;
}

Thanks in advance for all the help.
