Jerry “Darlin” Jordan
Jerry Allison Jordan, Sr., 87, of Fannett, Texas, passed away peacefully on October 18, 2025. Born on March 4, 1938, Jerry spent his life surrounded by family, friends, and the great outdoors he loved so much.
He was a man who could make anything grow — from tomatoes in his garden to laughter around a dinner table. He loved golf, good music, and a well-timed joke, but nothing compared to the joy he found in family. His wife, Jackie, was the love of his life and together they built a beautiful life.
He is survived by his loving wife, Jackie Jordan; son, Jerry Jordan and wife, Susan; daughter, D’Lisa Mitchell and husband, Mark; grandchildren, Cassidy Morgan and husband, Jordy, granddaughter Montana Mitchell, and grandson Trae Minaldi; and great-grandchildren, Knox, Ander, and Bradi.
Jerry will be remembered as a devoted husband, father, and “Darlin’” whose love for family ran deep. He will be remembered for his easy smile, and the way he showed love not through words alone, but through presence, persistence, and play. Those who knew him best will forever hear his voice in the rustle of the garden, the ripple of the beach waves, and the strum of a favorite song.
A life well lived, a heart well loved, and stories that will be told for generations — that was Jerry Jordan, Sr.
A gathering of Mr. Jordan’s family and friends will be from 4:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m., Wednesday, October 22, 2025, at Broussard’s, 134 West Buccaneer Drive, Winnie. A graveside service will be at 10:00 a.m., Thursday, October 23, 2025, at Head Of Hollow Cemetery, Cameron, Louisiana 70631.

Jackie, Jerry & D’Lisa,
I am so sorry to hear about Darlin. May God bless you all in your time of sorrow. I will forever treasure the times that we all had and have great memories of my time with my 2nd family. Darlin will forever be a role model and will be missed greatly.
Love you all and really sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear about Mr.Jordon. Prayers for the family.
I got to meet Jerry one time while visiting with Mark & D’Lisa, and after I was introduced I whispered to D’Lisa, “Are you sure? I should call I’m Darlin’?” With Hearty laughter she affirmed it!
I enjoyed his stories, his smile, his laughter and his apparent kindness. He left the impression like if Louie Lamore had written about him, he’d be “One to ride the river with!”
D’Lisa, Jackie, Jerry… God bless you as your lives change from the loss. I pray the good memories he left are always the strongest. He was a lovely and loving man. I’m glad I got to know him that time. May he RIP.
We are praying for all the family and friends.
Jerry and family,
Jim and I are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Jim & Janet Quebedeaux
I count my blessings I got to all Darin my friend. Christmas Eve at Darlin and Jackie’s home. His smile always wonderful. He loved dancing with Jackie. A love story. I remember one night at Pine Tree he was dancing with D’Lisa. So much love in Jordon family 🙏🙏
Great man. He will be missed
So sorry for your loss. I remember Jerry at a few of our happy hours there in Beaumont after work in the late 1970’s early 80 s.
Our Prayers are with all of you. My God hold you close and give you comfort and peace.
Jackie, so sorry for your loss! Darlin was an amazing man, father and friend! So many memories to be cherished! Love you!
