The funeral service will be held on Sunday, February 22, 2026, at 3:00 PM in the sanctuary of the Bethel Baptist Church in Vienna, Georgia. The burial, with military honors, will follow at the Vienna City Cemetery in Vienna, Georgia.
Nathan Jerome Jordan was born on December 18, 1955, in Vienna, Georgia. He was the beloved son of George W. Jordan and Leona F. Jordan, and he grew up in a family that valued education and hard work.

To the family of my Dear and Forever Cousin. I shall Always have fond memories of our Beloved "Jerome". We often spoke about the "Good "ole" Bahamian Food" our family was known for and the "Good Times" we had together as children during he and his family summer visits to Miami, Florida to see our grandmother. I looked forward to seeing Uncle George, Aunt Leona, Jerome, Keith and Emma and sharing in the laughter and fun we had together. Nathan Jerome Jordan was a kind, thoughtful, and caring man who loved the Lord and His Family. The memories of my Dear Cousin Jerome shall be with me throughout eternity.

My deepest condolences to the family. Jerome is one of my classmates I have know since first grade. He has always been kind and respectful. He was a leader, and a thoughtful friend. I have nothing but fond memories of our days all through school from the very beginning to graduation and beyond. I really enjoyed him during our 50th class reunion a couple of years ago. He was so kind to come by and talk with me when my father passed in 2022. Jerome had a big heart. We will all miss him. Rest well Classmate. ❤

RIP, JJ. It was a pleasure serving with you in the U.S. Airforce. You and Betty were awesome friends. I'll forever cherish the time we spent together. The world was a better place with you guys in it. Your example help me develop into a successful air traffic controller. I'll never forget the time we had to evacuate from our base in Florida because of a hurricane, you were gracious enough to allow me and Gayle to spend that time at your parent's home in Georgia until the storm passed. Take your rest my friend, my condolences to your family left behind. I know they will miss you sorely..
Mike McKine.
