Roger “Rick” A. Jordan Jr., 65, passed away on April 16, 2022, surrounded by his cherished family. He was born Dec. 28, 1956, the son of Roger A. (Sr.) and Marjorie E. (Frost) Jordan.
Rick was a quiet, gentle soul and kind-hearted man who was well loved and respected by his family and friends. He gave freely without expecting anything in return and lived his life with strength and grace. Rick was a kind and loving partner to his wife, Julie, for 41 years and considered his greatest accomplishment in life to being a father and Papa to his grandchildren. His family was his greatest joy; he instilled a strong work ethic in his children and passed down the love of gardening and farming. Rick was a lifelong member and supporter of the 4-H program and attended the Sullivan Harbor Baptist Church.
Rick is survived by his devoted wife, Julie (Clow) Jordan; his daughters, Emily Jordan and her husband, Aaron, Abby Jordan and son Joshua Jordan and his wife, Becca; four grandchildren, Adalyn, Taylor, Natalie and Lani, who brought much light into his world; three sisters, Judy Brown and her husband, Cubby, Linda Ronnquist and husband, Malcolm, and Joanne Hamilton and husband, Ron; sister-in-law Jenny Gott and husband, Peter; special friends Kenny and Diny Jordan; and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, brother, Gregg Jordan; nephew Timothy Jordan; and special friend Dwight Sargent.
