Gina Williams Jordan

Gina Williams Jordan, 56, of Millington, formerly of Bolivar, departed this life Monday, January 4, 2021 at her home.

She was born July 10, 1964, in Fayette County, the daughter of Pat Bruce Jordan of Middleton and the late Billy Wayne Williams. She was a 1982 graduate of Bolivar Central High School and received her Master's in Nursing, working at Bolivar Central High School with their HOSA program for about 15 years, with Baptist East Hospital, and most recently was the HOSA instructor at Millington Central High School. She enjoyed cross-stitching, watching independent films at the Ridgeway, reading, especially Jane Austen novels, Broadway musicals, and all holidays, particularly Halloween and Christmas. A well known "Jeopardy Pro", she received her greatest fulfillment from being around her grandchildren, whom she dearly loved, and was referred to as "softball team GiGi". Ms. Jordan was a Christian in faith.
