JORDAN
Barbara Ann (Bunting)
Barbara Ann (Bunting) Jordan, age 65, passed away peacefully during her sleep while vacationing in Costa Rica on April 19, 2016.
She was born on May 19, 1950, in Toledo, Ohio to Lloyd Bunting Jr. and Wilma (Westfall) Bunting. She was married to Robert Jordan on June 23, 1972. She attended Start High School in Toledo, and moved to Ida Township to raise her two children. She studied LIFE at the University of Toledo and retired from Toledo Edison after 28 years of service.
She was an amazing woman who was very committed to her family. She coached her daughter's softball team, she gave Christmas a special touch with homemade ornaments, and hosted a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration annually. She was very proud of her American Indian heritage, and enjoyed researching her family's history.
She especially enjoyed spending time with her 6 grandchildren, Elayna Jordan (6), Berkley Smith (5), Delia Jordan (3), Celia Jordan (3), Bowen Smith (2), and William Jordan (2). They kept her busy and she cherished her time with them.
Barbara is survived by her husband, Robert; son, Brad Jordan (Amy) of Ann Arbor, Michigan; her daughter, Stacey Smith (Ben), of Point Place, Ohio. Also surviving, her stepmother, Sandi Koepke Bunting; her stepsister, Heather Caligiuri; and nieces, Merinda Marcinkowski-Tippett, April Smith, and Jeannie Miller. She was preceded in death by two brothers, Michael Bunting and Patrick Bunting.
She always had a positive attitude and when she smiled, it warmed your heart. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Memorial contributions are suggested to your local Humane Society.

I had just returned from my youngest grandson's first communication when I learned of Barb's passing. Consequently it has been a day of emotional extremes. Barb and Bob had been together since our Start days. My heart goes out to Bob and his family.
wow......Im shocked, and grieved at Barb's passing..The whole Bunting Family were teriffic people. I even knew Mike, along with Pat and Barb...What an absolutely beautiful picture of her, in her OBIT write up....
Thank you, Start High/Gary M~~ for letting all of us know :)
