Catherine Lavinia Todd Jordan, 98, died Monday night (December 31, 2018) at Highlands Lake Center of Lakeland, FL following an extended illness.
She was born in Ware County and had lived much of her life in Ware County, Georgia. She also resided in the Bronx, New York, and several cities in Florida: Crescent City, Callahan, Green Cove Springs, Jacksonville, Clearwater, and Lakeland.

She was also preceded in death by an adult daughter, Catherine Diann Van Deusen, an adult son, Robert Lyn McClellan, and her young daughter, Betty Joyce McClellan; three brothers: James Mallard Smith, Carl Clifford Smith, and Audrey Todd; and a granddaughter, Linda McClellan Bullock.
She was a devoted member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church and a former nurse’s aide at the Ware County Hospital and also in the office of doctors Michew and Collins. Mrs. Jordan worked many jobs to help provide for the needs of her family over her lifetime and at one time owned her own business, a fruit and souvenir stand on US Highway 1. Catherine will be remembered for her vibrant smile, her twinkling eyes, her warm hugs, her genuine faith, her sweet spirit, her words of encouragement, and her nurturing nature. She will be dearly missed by her family, friends, and caregivers.
