Martha was very much a part of our happy little band, even at her age. I think the Cowsills considered her a second Mom. Martha was the mother of Cowsill Fan Club President, Marsha Jordan. Many of us had the honor of meeting sweet Martha over the years. Cowsill nation is sadder today.
Martha's obit reads:
Martha Ann Kealhofer Jordan, age 94, of Lexington, MS passed away peacefully at her home at 4:50 p.m. on March 22, 2022 with her daughter at her bedside.
A native of Holmes County, MS, Mrs. Jordan retired from BankPlus 5 years ago after working as secretary for First National Bank and BankPlus for 43 years. Previously she was employed by Weathersby Chevrolet-Buick Company, and prior to that job, she was secretary for many years for Attorney Edwin White until his retirement.
Mrs. Jordan was a devoted Christian daughter, wife, and mother. She was a member of Oregon Memorial Church in Lexington.
