Margaret Annabell (Hall) Jordan had a very full and loving life. She was born August 17, 1910, in Cedar Falls, Iowa, the daughter of George and Margaret (Janssen) Bacher. On December 1, 1928, she was united in marriage to Gerald Hall in Waverly, IA. He died in 1971. To this union, four children were born: Geraldine, Richard, Carol, and Allen.

She later married Earl Jordan February 9, 1980 in Cedar Falls. He died February 4, 1983. She was employed at John Deere retiring on September 1, 1970.

Margaret and Jerry enjoyed their time together fishing and traveling. They started tenting and fishing on Cass Lake, eventually purchasing a trailer in Lake City on Lake Pipen where they spent their time boating and fishing. They then purchased a house boat on the Mississippi and spent every weekend fishing. Cruises with friends and trips to Europe and the Holy Land highlighted her retirement.

Margaret and Earl Jordan were married for 3 years and enjoyed traveling and fishing trips in Canada and her trip to Mexico with her son Allen

Almost every Sunday, she would cook family diners at her home on Cottage Row, where her food was appreciated and everyone enjoyed watching the color television.

Marge and Jerry cleaned up every year following many floods. Everyone pitched in hosing and shoveling the silt from the house.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husbands; daughters, Carol Norman and Geraldine Maulson-Dotz; and son, Allen Hall Sr.
