Jordan of Dodson; her children, Iris Lazarus of Jonesboro, Royce Jordan and wife, Connie, of Dodson, Jena Cook and husband, David, of Youngsville, and Ryan Jordan and wife, Tonya, of Dodson; her grandchildren, Seth Cox, Duane Jordan, Trevor Jordan, Daniel Cox, Justin Burnett, Mercedes Jordan, and Nathan Lazarus; 12 great-grandchildren; and one great-great-granddaughter.
