The Rev. Boyd F. Jordan Day at the
Museum on Sunday, July 19, 2009
On Sunday July 19, 2009 Mrs. Helen Jordan presented a
selection of the many poems her husband, the late Rev Boyd F.
Jordan had written through the years. The selection of
pictures following are in a clockwise direction:
(1) Mrs. Helen Jordan with her son and daughter and Mrs. Jo
Ann Roche (wife of Mayor Dewey Roche.)
(2) A close-up of the crochet fabric which adorned the table
under Reverend Jordan's poems. The history behind this piece
is sweet. It was crocheted by Rev. Boyd Jordan's mother. She
started this labor of love before the Second World War and
with the shortage of material, could not complete it until the
War was over, she took up where she left off four or five
years earlier. It is really a masterpiece.
