Vicki La Jo Jordan

Vicki La Jo Jordan, 69, of Chapel Hill passed away on November 11, 2024, after battling pulmonary disease and briefly under the care of Hospice of East Texas. She was surrounded by her family, saddened to live without her but knowing that she was flying home to be with Jesus. Vicki was born on August 30, 1955, in Liberty, Texas, daughter to Ronald Monroe Turner and Margarite Louise Turner. She was a 1973 graduate of Chapel Hill High School, longtime Chapel Hill resident, and member of Lone Star Church in Tyler. She obtained her Bachelor's degree from Texas A&M at Commerce, her only flaw, according to her husband, who is a dedicated Longhorns fan. Her Chapel Hill and Tyler communities benefited from a monthly free medical clinic she founded in 2008. It began as Sharon Community Clinic and moved several years ago to Lone Star Church where it was renamed Cornerstone Free Medical Clinic. Her husband, Dr. Raymond Jordan, is one of the providers, and she served as president of the board, in addition to managing the volunteers and resources. Her compassion and kindness were witnessed once a month as she welcomed people with the phrase “We just want to be a blessing!” She is survived by her husband of 46 years, her mother, and children Jeremy Jordan of Chapel Hill, Julie Jordan of Houston, Rebecca Ramirez of Hot Springs, Ark, Terrence Tresner of Chapel Hill, and Melissa Avery of Tyler. Also surviving her are her siblings - Veronica Bragg of Arp, Vanessa Turner of Tyler, and Andrew Turner of Arp; and brother-in-law and sister-in-law Edward and Cindy Jordan of Bullard. She is mourned by her grandchildren, who knew her as their “Bic”—Heather Juarez of Tyler, Hallie Tresner of Tyler, Emma Brewer of Chapel Hill, Jennavieve Brewer and Aria Ramirez of Hot Springs, Elijah Avery of Tyler, and Shea Avery of Houston. Her five great-grandchildren and countless nieces and nephews will also feel her absence. Vicki’s heart and love for others was evident to all her friends and family. Even though she was prescribed supplemental oxygen therapy several years ago, she never slowed down and never said no to a friend, fellow church member, or neighbor in need. A memorial service will be held at 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, at Lone Star Church at 604 W. 4th Street in Tyler. Visitation will be from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Monday, November 18, 2024, at Stewart Family Funeral Home at 7525 Old Jacksonville Highway in Tyler.
