    Died:
    John R. Jordan
    A life-long resident of Christie Lake, John R. Jordan, collapsed and died of a heart seizure on August 15, 1965. He was in his 61st year.

    Mr. Jordan was the son of the late John Jordan and the late Martena Miller. He married the former Mary Scharf in 1933.

    A well known Christie Lake resident, Mr. Jordan was prominent in the affairs of the area and held office in many local organizations. However, he was possibly best known for the summer resort he operated. Starting in 1941 with one cottage, he expanded his business over the years; many of his guests returned summer after summer from all parts of Canada and the United States.

    A member of Calvin United Church, Mr. Jordan was Secretary of the Board of Stewards. He was also on the Bathurst Township Council from 1955 to 1961 and at the time of his death Sitting Master of True Britons Lodge A.F. and A.M. No. 14; Past Principal of Prince of Wales Chapter; Member of Gondemar Preceptory, Brockville' Noble of the Mystic Shrine of Rameses Temple; President of Land of Lakes Shrine Club; Worthy Patron of Royal Tay Chapter No. 193, OES;, and a member of Canadian Woodsmen of the World, Edward Camp 285. Mr. Jordan was also vice-president of the Christie Lake Anglers' and Hunters' Association and Vice President of the Lanark and Leeds Fish and Game Association.

    The many floral tributes, messsages of sympathy and donations to the Bible Society, The Ontario Heart Foundatiion, the Gideons and the Shriners' Hospital for Crippled Children indicated the high esteem in which Mr. Jordan was held. Hundreds of friends and relatives came from great distances sto pay their respects. The loss occasioned by Mr. Jordan's death is summed up by an excerpt from one of the many messages of sympathy, "Christie Lake will not be the same without his cheerful greeting and wonderful community spirit."

    Mr Jordan is survived by his wife; one Daughter, Betty (Mrs. Arnold Miller), and four sons, Robert, Alan, Lloyd, and Harold, all of Perth; also eleven grandchildren; three brothers, George, Arthur, anad Calvin, Perth; and two sissters, Helen, Christie Lake and Florida; and Sadie, Toronto.

    The funeral was held at Perth on August 18, at Blair and Son Chapel, Mr. E.V. Cook and Mr. W.James officiated. Mr Cook, in his eulogy, said of Mr Jordan, "Though small in stature, he cast a great shadow."

    Pallbearers were Wilbur Noonan, Kenneth Kirkham, J.P. Cameron, Dave Gardiner, Basil Patterson, and Ed James. Shriners of the Land of Lakes Shrine Club formed a guard of honour.
