WALTHAM and Bangor
Paulette H. Jordan, 97, passed away Dec. 26, 2019, in Bangor. She was born in France, the daughter of Gaston J. and Yvonne M. (Louchard) Courbon.
Paulette met her husband, Kenneth C. Jordan, at the Eiffel Tower in France, where he was serving in the U.S. Army; they married in 1946.
They made their home after the war in Dayton, Ohio, and lived there for over 30 years. In 1983, after Kenneth retired, they moved to Kenneth’s hometown of Waltham. They were very devoted to their niece, Michele, and her son Paul. She loved animals and being in the outdoors. In her younger years, she enjoyed hunting and fishing with her late husband. She also enjoyed having family and friends over for dinner. Paulette was always in for an adventure, whether it was a project around the house or going out for a ride. She was always a kid at heart.
She is survived by a sister, Jeannette Golden of Bangor; niece, Michele B. Golden of Hampden; great-nephew, Paul Aucoin of Holden, and his son, Kenneth Aucoin of Holden; special cousin, Debra Jordan of Ellsworth; cousins, Douglas R. Jordan and Bruce Jordan of Ohio. Paulette was predeceased by her husband of 62 years in 2008.
A funeral service will be held 11 a.m., Thursday, Jan. 2, 2020, at Jordan-Fernald, 113 Franklin St., Ellsworth, with Father Dubey, celebrant. Spring interment will be at Hillside Cemetery, Waltham.
