Jack J. Jordan, 90, left us January 22, 2014, at his home in Post Falls, Idaho.

Jack was a decorated WWII Veteran, bus driver, truck driver, trucking business owner, and a police officer in Garden City, Idaho, and Mountain Home, Idaho, as well as a sheriff’s deputy in San Bernardino County, California.
