In loving memory of Donald D. Jordan, who departed this world unexpectedly on April 1, 2025, in Temple, Texas, at the age of 73. Born on July 4, 1951 in San Diego, Donald spent most of his life devoted to his career in HVAC, where his hard work and dedication were evident in every endeavor he pursued.
Donald was a man of strong character, known for being hardworking and tough-loving. He had opinions that he wasn't afraid to share, making him a memorable personality in the lives of those who knew him. As a father and grandfather, Donald took immense pride in his family, considering them his greatest accomplishment. He will be deeply missed by his sons, William "Donny" Jordan of Temple, Morgan Taylor of Manhattan, Montana, and Kyle Jordan of Temple, as well as his beloved grandchildren, Kadence Jordan, Trinity Jordan, Raylee Snellgrove, Christian Neuwirth, Caitlin Principe, Paige Taylor, Mason Taylor, and Madeline Taylor.
A proud man, Donald found joy in working with his hands and often enjoyed quiet moments with a book. He had a special fondness for drinking diet Dr. Pepper, which brought him simple pleasure in his day-to-day life. Donald's sudden passing followed a long illness, leaving behind cherished memories for family and friends who were fortunate enough to have walked alongside him in life.
