Kimberly Jordan, a beacon of love and laughter, passed away on December 19, 2024, in Paragould, Arkansas, at the age of 54. Born on May 30, 1970, in Jonesboro, Arkansas, Kimberly’s life was a testament to the power of kindness, dedication, and unconditional love.
Kimberly’s journey began in Jonesboro, where she grew up surrounded by a loving family and community. Her academic pursuits led her to Arkansas State University, where she studied nursing, a field that reflected her innate desire to care for others.

Beyond her professional achievements, Kimberly’s heart was always with her family. She was a loving wife to her husband, Joe Jordan, and a proud mother to her son, Braden Herring Riggins, daughter, Lexi Herring Clarke and step-son Conner Jordon. Her role as a sister to Kevin Baxter and Gina Tucker was filled with shared memories and an unbreakable bond. Kimberly’s family was her pride and joy, and she celebrated each of their accomplishments with an enthusiasm that was truly infectious.
After the passing of her grandmother, Kimberly gracefully stepped into the role of the family matriarch. She became the keeper of traditions and the one who ensured that the memories of those who had passed remained alive in the hearts of her loved ones. Her home was a place of warmth and laughter, where stories were shared, and the legacy of her ancestors was honored.
