Jordan K. Kelser, 33, passed away from a heart attack on Thursday, November 14, 2024. Life is so cruel and unfair to take away such an amazing, kind, goofy, and absolutely selfless man so soon. Jordan was all heart, and it is so sick and twisted that the very part of his body that was the most full of life betrayed him. Jordan was passionate, first and foremost, about his little girl, Natalia. Everything Jordan did in life was for his family.
Jordan and Sarah (Gill) were married on July 6, 2024, in La Crosse, WI, at a beautiful nature preserve. Immediately following their wedding, Jordan and Sarah headed to Croatia for their honeymoon, a destination Jordan had always dreamed of visiting. In the last few years of his life, Jordan truly accomplished everything he ever wanted. He had a beautiful baby girl, Natalia, met the love of his life, Sarah, found a job he loved at Jet Air as an avionics tech, got married, visited Croatia, and bought his first home.
Jordan is survived by his wife, Sarah; son, Landon; daughter, Natalia; parents, John and Linda (Witter) Kelser; brother, Ryan (Jenn) Kelser; and nephews, Kayden and Kyler Kelser. He is also survived by his in-laws, Brian and Marcia Gill; sister-in-laws, Stephanie (Joe) Gill and Hannah (Cameron) Gill; and his close friends Johnny (Hannah) Griffith, Caleb (Shaunna) Chipman, along with many aunts, uncles, cousins, and other family members and friends.
Jordan is preceded in death by his grandparents, Isaac and Dorothy Witter, and John and Mitzi Kelser.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Bubolz Nature Preserve on December 15, 2024, from 12:30 PM to 3:30 PM on the lower level of The Lodge. The family requests that if you have stories to share, please write them down and bring them for the family to cherish in a memory book. There will be appetizers and light refreshments. Most are welcome.
