    Donna Jordan Radcliffe of Belhaven, NC went home to her Lord and Savior on Friday, March 6, 2026, after a courageous, almost a 2.5 yearlong battle against cancer. She peacefully passed away at home.

    Donna was born August 29, 1952, in Fort Knox, Kentucky to Joseph Keith Jordan Sr. and Faye Aldridge Jordan. Her family later moved to the Belhaven area. She graduated from John A. Wilkinson High School in 1971. Donna later married Richard Nelson Radcliffe on February 1st, 1985. Donna was a homemaker and took pride in serving her community, whether babysitting, cleaning houses, or mowing yards. She never met a stranger and had a servant's heart. She was always willing to help others, doing so quietly without desire for attention or praise. Donna and her family attended Belhaven Missionary Baptist Church where she was an active member that helped in any way she could. She loved the beach and just being outdoors in general. In her free time, Donna enjoyed riding bikes, walking, or sunbathing on a pier. She also enjoyed listening to beach and rock music, shagging, and doing the "bump" with her husband whenever the opportunity presented.

    She is survived by her husband of 41 years, Richard Nelson Radcliffe, son, Kenneth Elton Braddy (Malicia), and stepson, Jonathan Reid Radcliffe (Penelope) all of Belhaven. Grandchildren in order age: Macy Radcliffe Kelly (Chris), Madison Laine Braddy, Hunter Jordan Braddy, and Tyler Reid Radcliffe. Donna is also survived by her brother, Joseph Keith Jordan II (Becki), sister, Deena Lee (Kennie), and many nieces and nephews.

    As a family, we would like to thank her caregivers for their love and dedication in helping to care for Donna.

    In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks for memorial contributions be made to Belhaven Missionary Baptist Church, PO B ox 400, Belhaven, NC 27810.
