Marilyn J. Jordan

Jordan, Marilyn J. (Creedon) of Weymouth, died peacefully, surrounded by her family, on October 2, 2019. 

A native of Boston, Marilyn was one of 7 siblings. She attended Jamaica Plain High School and was known for her sense of humor and fun. When she and her husband became the parents of 3 daughters, she often said she had hit the “jackpot.”. When her grandson arrived, he became the light of her life. For many years, Marilyn worked at State Street Bank in Quincy. The original “Mama Bear”, Marilyn was fiercely devoted to her family. And she lead by example on the importance of being a kind and caring friend.

And, whenever possible, getting up to dance.
