Our mother was one of the strongest, most loving and giving mothers God ever put on this earth. She dedicated her life to wanting her children and grandchildren to being happy. If she told us once she told us a million times “all I want is for you girls to be happy”. Yes, she could really get on us, if she thought you were doing wrong, but that was just her undying love and dedication to the task of making sure we were happy and had a good life. When the going got rough, Mom was the person we would go to. She would hang in there with us until we felt better. We always felt safe in the knowledge that she would always be there when we needed her. We will greatly miss that, we will miss her.
Mom fought hard to overcome and her lung disease and never gave up on life and her family. I don’t know that I could be that strong for so long. She proved that strength by fighting for so many years to stay alive even though every breath she took was a battle. She was so strong willed that she drug her oxygen hose around while redecorating the house and other various projects that many healthy people wouldn’t take on.
As many of you well know, Mom loved her country crafts and décor. Country blue was her favorite color; this was quite apparent when you walked in the house. Jenny always said, “Whatever it is, paint it blue and grandma will like it”. Dad always said “I can’t stand in one place for to long or she might paint blue me as well”.
We will always cherish the memories of spending the day with her shopping, antiquing, roaming the craft shops and shows, going out to lunch and dinner, walking the beach or just sitting and talking for hours. Yes, sometimes there might have been a few glasses of wine involved, but there was always a lot of love and laughs involved.
She was a very talented woman, who had a great artistic ability. She carried herself with dignity and decorated her home beautifully. Her artistic abilities were amazing. She could take an old piece of wood and turn it into an heirloom of great value; this is what she has done with all four of us girls. We will always be proud to say that Roberta Jordan was our mother. She may be gone from this earth, but she will live forever in our memories and hearts.
…Thanks Mom we love you.
Debbie, Rhonda, Donna & Lori

My deepest sympathy to John and the rest of the family. I will have fond memories of our childhood play for the rest of my life. John, you always made me laugh and cannot ever remember anything but good thoughts about Bert. I miss seeing all of you.
