Arlene Mae Jordan, age 82, of National City, Michigan, passed away peacefully on December 15, 2023. Arlene was born to the late Ollie and Margaret (Hoeppner) Burtch on December 17, 1940, in West Branch, Michigan. She was raised in Skidway Lake, Michigan, and was a graduate of the first ever Whittemore-Prescott High School graduating Class of 1959. Following high school, Arlene moved to National City, Michigan and married the love of her life, George Jordan on June 11, 1960. The two spent the next 59 years together happily married in National City before George’s passing in 2019. Arlene worked as a homemaker as she took on the duties of looking after the house and children she and George had together. Some of her favorite hobbies over the years consisted of fishing, hunting, gardening flowers, camping, casino trips, bingo, and most importantly spending quality time with her family. Arlene had a very friendly and caring personality, and she will be missed dearly by many.
