Wanda L. Jordan

June 5, 1946 - March 31, 2022

Wanda L. Jordan, age 75, garage and rummage sale lover, opinionated, clean freak, no filter, also known as Nana, Mom, Grandma, and GG, of Bradley passed away, Thursday, March 31, 2022 from stomach cancer, leaving Goodwill without one of its most loyal customers. She was born on June 5, 1946 in Milks Grove, one of eight children, to Sim & Eula Juanita (Payne) Kingston. Wanda married George W. Jordan on October 6, 1966 in Paducah, KY. They shared one daughter together, Vicki Lynn. In her younger years, Wanda worked at Bear Brand Hosiery, Burger King, Walleys, Sammy’s Pizza, Jordan Plumbing and Heating, and Wal-Mart. She loved to be outside in the sun working on her yard and flowers. Wanda loved decorating her home with all her treasures she found at her sales. One of Wanda’s wishes was to become spokesperson for Pepsi. She loved her cold Pepsi. Most of all, she loved her great-grandchildren. She loved all her time she spent with them, having sleepovers, making homemade popcorn with real brown butter, playing games, and going to watch all of Jackson’s sports. We hope they aren’t too young to remember the fun firecracker GG was for them. She had a personality all her own, soft but with rough edges. A unique zest for life and endless loved to give. Life will truly never be the same without her. Surviving are one daughter, Vicki Jordan Saucier; one grandson, Travis Saucier; one granddaughter, Jessica & Tim Nottke; three great-grandchildren, Jackson Nottke, Jordan Nottke, and Jenner Nottke; one brother, James & Kathy Kingston; one sister, Yvonne Brandenburg; many nieces and nephews; and her little dog, Izzy. Wanda is preceded in death by her husband, George Jordan; her parents; two sisters, Bertha “Bert” Richmond and Carolyn “Sue” Barnett; three brothers, Ronald “Ronnie” Kingston, Edwin “Rocky” Kingston, and William “Bill” Kingston; and her little dog, Lucky. Per her request, cremation rites have been accorded. There will be no services at this time. Memorials may be made, in her name, to the Kankakee County Humane Foundation at 2214 IL 1, St. Anne, IL 60964, or to the family wishes. Arrangements by Clancy-Gernon Funeral Home in Bourbonnais.
