The Passing of Julie Jordan

Posted by Trevor Jordan and Erin Jordan Spanski

5/6/25 – Julie’s funeral will be held at Spring Grove Cemetery this Saturday, May 10. Visitation will take place at noon, with Service at 1 p.m., followed by a reception. In lieu of flowers, we are organizing a donation in her honor; details to follow.


We are heartbroken to share that our mom, Julie Helmes Jordan, passed away suddenly yesterday. She passed peacefully, without pain, and was surrounded by loved ones.

As we begin planning arrangements, we want to celebrate the life she had, and the impact her love and selflessness had on us all, especially her kids and her grandchildren.

If you have a positive memory with her that you would like to share, please feel free to comment it or share with us separately – we would love to read it ❤.

We appreciate the outpouring love we’ve received already, and we will share details on funeral arrangements as soon as they are finalized.

THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES: DREAM ON Runs May 23-31

THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES: DREAM ON
Sunset Players
May 23-31
The Arts Center at Dunham [West Price Hill]

Directed by Linda Abbott

Cast: Clare Hingsbergen as Betty Jean, Virginia Venegas as Cindy Lou, Kelley Flaugher as Missy & Mary Ann Sprague as Suzy

It’s 1969, and The Marvelous Wonderettes are back at Springfield High to throw a retirement part for their favorite homeroom teacher. As the girls sing their way through the greatest girl-group hits of the ’60s and bid Ms. McPherson a fond farewell, one of the Wonderettes reveals that she’ll be saying goodbye to search for her own success and happiness. Act II finds the girls back together as the Class of 1958 celebrates its 20-year reunion. The classic pop and rock hits of the’70s provide the perfect soundtrack for these old friends to catch up on the places that life has led them, all performed with their own marvelous spin.
