LUBBOCK—Georgia Arlene Jordan, “My Sunshine,” 79, of Lubbock, passed away from her earthly home on January 10, 2023. Arlene was the daughter of Marion and Eunice Jordan of Spur, Texas. She graduated in 1961 from Spur High School, where she was in band and choir, and was a majorette. She attended West Texas State.
