256Everett J. Jordan, 81, passed away Wednesday, June 2, 2010, in Boise, but lived in Lewiston for 50 years. A lifelong Idahoan except for his time in the military, Everett was born at home in Weippe, Nov. 1, 1928, to Glenn and Florna Carr Jordan. He grew up working in the family store in Weippe, enjoying the outdoors of the Weippe prairie, as well as the surrounding mountains and streams. Everett attended Weippe schools from first grade through high school, playing sports and excelling in academics.
Everett graduated with a teaching degree from Lewis-Clark Normal School and later earned a master's degree from the University of Idaho.
Everett married Helen Fountain on April 4, 1950, in Lewiston, and they recently celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. They first taught in Salmon, Idaho, then went to New Plymouth, Idaho, to teach. When Everett joined the U.S. Air Force during the Korean War, Helen went with him to Colorado, South Dakota, and on to Tokyo, where they resided for two years and had their first daughter, Patricia.
Upon their return to the United States, their second daughter, Amy, was born at Fairchild Air Force Base near Spokane. The family moved to Lewiston and Everett became a member of the U.S. Air Force Reserves.
Combining his love of being a HAM radio operator with the military, Everett "patched" through many military personnel via radio and phone so that they could communicate with their loved ones during the Vietnam War. During this time, Everett was an instructor for Lapwai junior and senior high schools, teaching math and science classes until 1989, a total of 33 years. Everett literally knew Lapwai schools inside and out, having installed many electronic and technical systems, including a satellite system for distance learning.
Everett also loved flying and had his instrument-rating private pilot's license. He first learned to fly while stationed in Denver during the early 1950s. He and his brother-in-law, Bud Fountain, loved to talk about flying experiences and they owned several planes together over the years. He inspired his daughter, Amy, to get her pilot's license as well.
While Pat and Amy attended UI, Everett and Helen welcomed many foreign college students into their home for weekends and holidays. One of those students, Maggie, still calls them mom and dad, as does their son-in-law, Dilip.
Everett was a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows (IOOF), Elks, American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, and a 50-year member of Masonic Nez Perce Lodge No. 10 AF and AM.
Everett is survived by his wife, Helen; his daughter, Patricia Saletore and her husband, Dilip; and daughter Amy Brasley and her husband, Larry. Everett and Helen have five grandchildren, Ambika Saletore Silva and her husband Dustin, Ayesha Saletore, Nikhil Saletore, Nathan Brasley and Ann Brasley.
Everett was preceded in death by his parents and brother-in-law, James (Bud) Fountain.
A service will be conducted at 10 a.m. Friday at Malcom's Brower-Wann Funeral Home in Lewiston, with military honors to follow at Normal Hill Cemetery.
