Pat Jordan

Pat Jordan joins his wife, Gwen, in the loving arms of God. We'll gather our whole family together toward the end of summer to honor his life with a service at Ft Logan.

Pat graduated from Coalinga High School (home of the famous "Horned Toads"!), was recruited in 1947 as a clarinetist into the Navy and served in the Korean War, was discharged in 1951, then graduated San Diego State with a B.A. in Social Science, and joyfully married Gwen Elaine Thompson in 1954. He graduated Fuller Theological Seminar with a Master of Divinity and San Francisco Theological Seminary with a Doctor of Ministry.

Through the years, Pat loved jogging, motorcycle riding, singing, reading, teaching the Bible, running summer camps, and driving his student bell choirs around the country!

The Reverend Doctor J. Patrick Jordan loved ministry, kept "retiring" and then couldn't help but serve another community. He served in a wide range of roles with Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship, Central Presbyterian Church, Shepard of the Hills Presbyterian Church, Idaho Springs United Church, Byers Community Church, Mount Evans Hospice, and Rockland Community Church.

His delightful family legacy continues in his four children and their partners, his eleven grandchildren and their partners, and his four great grandchildren.

The family requests no flowers or gifts.
