He went on to attend Anaheim High School, graduating in 1959, before pursuing higher education at California State University, Fullerton, where he earned his degree in Business.<\/p>\n<p>Frank was a cornerstone of the Orange County community, most notably as the proud owner of Valley Liquor in Santa Ana. For nearly 50 years, he poured his dedication and entrepreneurial spirit into building his business and serving his customers. Upon selling the store in 2013, Frank embraced a well-earned retirement, filling his days with travel and cherished time with the people he loved most.<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of Frank\u2019s life was his beloved wife, Elizabeth Ann, with whom he shared 59 years of marriage. Her passing in 2023 was a profound loss, though the life they built together remains a testament to their enduring bond. Frank was also a devoted father to his two sons, Daniel and Donald. The family mourns the earlier loss of Donald, who passed away in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Frank\u2019s joy and pride extended to his three grandchildren \u2014 Haley, Taylor, and Cameron \u2014 who will carry his memory forward in everything they do.<\/p>\n<p>Frank Jordan will be deeply and dearly missed by his family, his friends, and all whose lives he touched. May he rest in peace.<\/p>\n<p>A Celebration of Frank will be held at 1:00pm on April 4th, 2026, at Hilgenfeld Mortuary in Anaheim<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Frank Jordan OBITUARY Frank Jordan, a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, passed away peacefully, leaving behind a legacy&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":238931,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[163,165,164],"class_list":["post-238930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-anaheim","tag-anaheim","tag-anaheim-headlines","tag-anaheim-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238930","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=238930"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238930\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/238931"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=238930"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=238930"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=238930"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
