Barbara Jordan

My best friend since fifth grade. She will be so missed.

Buff, so beautiful in every way. We've shared so very much in the last 72 years since 1st grade at Blessed Sacrament where you lead all of us girls, running to catch up with you, back & forth on the B.S. parking lot playground. We were frightened when polio took our beloved leader away from us in 3rd grade. When were allowed to visit you, we saw the light radiating from an unbroken spirit. With remarkable courage and dedicated intellectual ability you graduated from Edgewood with us, always full of fun, never missing a beat. You & I & Bill worked as servants to the Lord & Sister Mildredine's cafeteria, to help pay for our tuition. Sister & I conspired to get you two together & Hallelujah! We did it! I remember well, jumping up & down with her, by the prep table, in our joy. On though UW, we made it with our grants & scholarships & encouraging regular meet ups at the Union. Finally the blessed wedding came as did a miracle baby, William Jordan the fourth! Dearest Buffy, thank you for your inspirational life, your devotion & compassionate spirit to make everyone around you feel cared for & understood, and especially for being my kindred spirit. We will meet again My Friend. Connie

My sincere condolences on Buffy's passing..

Buffy will be greatly missed. We have been friends for nearly 50 yrs and I will miss our conversations greatly. Rest In Peace my dear friend. Veryl

I can still remember Buffy being my Confirmation sponsor, good friend, cousin and all the fun times we had in Madison. Memories of the Post home, picnics, the zoo trips and biweekly visits to all in Madison will always hold a special place in my heart. My sympathy to Bill and Billy. Love, Nancy "Holmes"
