William Jordan Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 7, 2017.

William "Bill" Jordan, 89, of Naples, FL died on September 5, 2017 with his loving wife Joan by his side. He was born in October 1927 in New Haven, CT to William L. Sr. and Signe (Olsen) Jordan.
Bill leaves behind his loving wife of 30 years Marie Jordan. He worked in Advertising Sales for Southern New England Telephone for 30 years until he retired. Bill was a lifetime member of the Knights of Columbus, and proudly served in the United States Army. Golfing with his buddies, the Red Sox, Big Band Music, and spending time with his family were his favorite past times. He is survived by his wife, Joan Marie (Keen) Jordan, daughters; Patty (the late Mike) Higgins, Ellen (Frank) Reilly, step-children; Tony Guida, Tina (Eric) Collins, Terri (Mario) Rodriguez, and Tammy Easterley; 13 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his first wife of 31 years Gloria Grysco Jordan, and his sister Audrey Madigan.
Memorial Mass will be re-scheduled for a later date due to power outages at St. William Catholic Church in Naples, Florida.
