Arthur "Buddy" John Jordan
June 27, 1943 - August 14, 2025
Pryor

Arthur "Buddy" John Jordan, born June 27, 1943, in Pryor, Oklahoma, peacefully passed away on August 14, 2025, in Chouteau, Oklahoma. A lifelong resident of the area, Buddy devoted his career to the jewelry business, serving as the owner of Jordan's Jewelers in Pryor and later as a salesman for Moody's Jewelry in Tulsa.

As a gifted salesman, Buddy's passion for people left an indelible mark on all who knew him. He was known for his infectious personality, overall "orniriness", and ability to brighten even the most difficult moments with humor and kindness. His uplifting spirit created cherished memories that will live on in the hearts of family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

A devoted Christian, Buddy's faith was the foundation of his life. He was a faithful member of Chouteau Hills Church of Christ for more than 50 years and treasured the fellowship of his church family. He deeply loved his own family, especially his beloved wife, Joyce, who preceded him in death. Buddy also had a lifelong passion for sports and music, with a special fondness for the Chicago Bulls, OKC Thunder, Kansas City Chiefs, and the music of Elvis Presley.

Buddy is survived by his children, Steven Scott Jordan, Shaun Carl Jordan, and Debi Kay Jordan; and by his grandchildren, Jordan Scruggs, Shelby Soder, Parker Jordan, and Hunter Jordan, who were a constant source of joy and pride.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Carl and Dorothy Jordan; his wife, Joyce Jordan; his sisters, Danny Warford and Judy Pilant; and his brother, Hubert Jordan.

Visitation will be held Monday, August 18, 2025, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Shipman's Funeral & Cremation Service in Pryor, Oklahoma.
