Not sure what to say?

My sympathy to the entire Jordan family for their loss. I never spoke to Joe or any of his brothers, but I listened and danced to their music at the Spot in Minersville and other venues whilst home from college in the early '60s. Thanks for the memories, Joe.

My condolences to the family. Jordan Brothers entertained us for MANY, MANY years! "'83 Rollerama" and "The Lake!" A wonderful group of brothers! Makes one remember the good old days!

REST IN PEACE JOSEPH. I REMEMBER SEEING THE BAND AT THE LAKE IN THE 1960S AND AT HUGOS IN THE 1970S. GREAT TIMES

I haven't been back home in some time. Prior to joining the Navy in 1965 The Jordan Brothers were THEE band and for a long time after.

I now live in Atlanta, but if I were home I would be there. In my thoughts. John

My deepest sympathy to his family. My sisters and I went every week to see the Jordan Brothers play at "The Lake" as we called it, back in the 60's. Such great memories. They were the best band ever! RIP Joe Jordan.
