AUBURN - Evelyn R. Jordan, 89, passed away peacefully on June 14th at the Knollwood Nursing Center after a period of declining health. Born in Worcester MA, she was the daughter of the late Sarah Brown and Ambrose Brown.

During her nursing career she worked at the Salisbury Nursing Home, Lincoln Nursing Home, and the Knollwood Nursing Home.

Pam & Family, My thoughts and prayers are with you on the recent passing of your parents! It was always so nice seeing them when they did their banking where I was a bank teller and when I'd see them at the Eye dr! Rest in peace Mr & Mrs Jordan! Keep watch over your family! Ginny Curran LaPan
