Laura was born on October 9, 1927, in Skiatook, OK to her parents, John Frank Goins and Axie (Partin) Goins. She was the youngest of 5 children. Laura was 18 months old when her mother passed away of pneumonia, and she was raised by her father and her siblings. Laura graduated from Skiatook High School and shortly after that, on December 27, 1944, she married Leonard Leon Jordan. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband on March 7, 2017, after 73 years of marriage. Their marriage was a testament to love, loyalty and devotion, in good times and bad.
Laura retired from Gottschalks in Fresno, after 30 years as an assistant buyer. She was a wonderful and loving mother, and an independent and strong woman, even without a mother of her own to emmulate. She leaves loving memories to be cherished by her family - of vacations, holidays, and gatherings, and our wonderful annual mother/daughter trips we took for over 30 years.
She is loved and will be missed by her four daughters and their families: Glenda Rose (Ron), Betty Plett (Gary), Kay Hall (Roger) & Trisha Hedstrom (Ray).
Grandchildren: Michele, Lisa, Christy, Lance, Mindi, & Brian.
Great Grandchildren: Kailee, Dustin, Nick, Ryan, Ivorie, Quinn & Tyler.
Great Great Grandchildren: Talyn, Josh, Alexandria, Graysen, Scarlett & Benjamin.
