Allan Jordan

JORDAN, Allan…

September 24, 1942 – April 8, 2022

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Allan Jordan. Allan passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on April 8, 2022 in London, Ontario at the age of 79.

Allan was born in Toronto to parents Velma and Charles Jordan and was the oldest of four siblings. Being outgoing and very social he had many passions in life. When younger he enjoyed dancing at his De Havilland work dances, roller skating and archery. He had a talent for creating beautiful leatherwork which ignited a lifelong hobby, spent countless hours fishing and while living in Napanee even entering Derby’s. He dreamed of owning a motorcycle, loved country music, western movies, playing pool, NASCAR and shopping, especially at thrift stores and flea markets or lawn sales… a good deal always made his day. Al had a strong affinity for native traditions and lore and found peace and spirituality in it, especially in his final journey. Eagles were a big symbol to him and he believed it was his animal. At family functions he told jokes and stories that will be dearly missed by many. He was energetic, eclectic and even a bit eccentric, all of which made him unforgettable to all he met.

Allan is survived by his wife Rose, his son Richard and daughter Robin (Mike) from his first marriage to wife Sandy who will all miss him dearly, as well as his grandchildren and great grandchildren. Family was important to him and he will be greatly missed by siblings Danny, Brenda (Andy) and Kathy (Verdun), all whom he adored and remained close to his whole life, as well as his many nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews whom he shared unique and special relationships with each.

At this time there will be no funeral services but there will be a celebration of life memorial at a later date.
