Obituary

Shirley A. (Daleski) Jordan, age 89, of Wellsboro, PA, passed away in her home on Tuesday, January 20, 2026. She was born on July 14, 1936 in Racine, WI, the eldest of two daughters of the late Albert Daleski and Anne (Kaisler) Daleski Dawson. She attended Saint Catherine’s High School during which time she met her first husband George Kamin; shortly after they moved to Ames, IA and had four children. George’s job as a chemist took the family to Towanda where George unfortunately passed away in 1971. Afterwards Shirley moved her family to Wellsboro and was employed as a waitress for many years. She moved to Colorado with her second husband Bob Jordan and even co-owned a restaurant in Frisco, CO. She moved back to Wellsboro in 1993 to be closer to her family. Shirley and Bob enjoyed traveling, seeing a good portion of the country via RV trips as well as traveling overseas- they actually lived in the country of Jordan for about two years! Shirley was a wonderful chef and baker- she was very well known for her bountiful trays of Christmas cookies she supplied every year! She also enjoyed feeding the birds, doing jigsaw puzzles, and going to local concerts and plays with her dear friend LuAnne Goodwin of Wellsboro. She was a great listener and always had time to chat, spending many afternoons visiting with her neighbors Marian Dilly, Jess Dilly, and Kassie Nowak. She is survived by a son: Steve Kamin of Wellsboro, PA, sister: Jan McFadden of Hutchinson, KS, son-in-law: Steven Tasa of Wellsboro, PA, daughter-in-law: Gayle Morrow of Westfield, PA, grandchildren: Haleigh Biuso (CA), Tyler Biuso (NY), Courtney Tasa (Wellsboro), Connor Simpson (CT), niece: April Wheeler of Pawtucket, RI, several other nieces and nephews and many loving friends. She was predeceased by her first husband: George Kamin, second husband: Robert “Bob” Jordan, son: Brian Kamin, daughters: Christine “Critter” (Kamin) Tasa, and Michelle (Kamin) Fox. In lieu of flowers charitable donations can be made in her honor to Second Chance Animal Sanctuaries, The Arbor Day Foundation, or any number of Catholic charities (she was a loyal donor to “Mother Jones” and “Boys Town”).
