Jordan Scott Prouty of Moultonborough, NH and Marshfield, MA passed away on the 13th of March at the age of 93. Jordan left us peacefully in his sleep, surrounded by his family in his home overlooking his beloved Lake Kanasatka. He passed just as he always hoped he would.

Jordan's greatest passions in life were his family and friends, the outdoors, travel, and community engagement.

Jordan was born in Norwood, Massachusetts on May 1st, 1928, the only child of Reed and Vera Priscilla (Johnstone) Prouty. He grew up in Portland, Maine and Marshfield, MA, spending the majority of his childhood outdoors in nature with his parents and friends. He earned the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America at age fifteen. The time he spent outdoors throughout his childhood led to a life full of hunting and fishing adventures, boating on lakes and oceans, traveling the world, especially to Bermuda, one of his favorite destinations, and spending time by his favorite lake in New Hampshire.

After graduating from Rochester Institute of Technology in 1951, he married the love of his life, Barbara Damon Prouty and was drawn to serve his country soon after. He attended officer candidate school and served to the rank of Captain in the US Army Signal Corps. Jordan and Barbara had four children, the "4S," which includes Susan Jane Norris, Stephen Damon Prouty and wife, Amy, Sara Jordan Prouty and husband, William Scott, and Sandra Reed Guimond and husband, Gene, all of Marshfield.

After Barbara's death and a period of courtship, he married the second love of his life, Phyllis (Marsh) Dane Prouty. He and Phyllis lived out their retirement years with love and joy. In addition to his children and their spouses, Jordan leaves three stepchildren and their spouses, seventeen grandchildren and nine great grandchildren.

Jordan firmly believed in contributing to his community and country. He fulfilled this belief from the time he volunteered to serve in the United States Army to boards of directors of nonprofits and municipal governments.

Some of Jordan's proudest volunteerism accomplishments include:

Captain, Marshfield Volunteer Fire Department Scoutmaster, Troop 61, Boy Scouts of America Elected Engineer, Marshfield Board of Health Board Member, Jordan Hospital, Plymouth Chairman, Board of Directors, Plymouth 5 Savings Bank Chairman, Loon Preservation Committee, Moultonborough Clerk of the Works, Loon Preservation Center development project Elected Trustee of the Trust Funds, Moultonborough Honorary Trustee, New Hampshire Audubon Society Clerk of the Works, Moultonborough Public Library extension project 60 year Master Mason Chairman, Moultonborough Capital Improvements Committee Selected Honorary Grand Marshall with wife, Phyllis, Moultonborough 4th of July Parade, 2014

Jordan also engaged with his community and country throughout his professional career. He worked as a government contractor and for several electronic sales companies before going on to found and serve as President and CEO of both Northeast Representatives and Hingham Bay Corporation in Hingham, MA.

Jordan was a dedicated husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, step father, step grandfather, colleague, volunteer, public servant, and friend to thousands of us. He cherished his time with everyone and his well known departure message, "Goodbye, Dear" was always delivered with a broad smile that will be remembered by all. The world has lost a beautiful person.

A memorial service is planned for Saturday, July 16, 2022 at 11:00am at North Community Church, 72 Old Main Street, Marshfield Hills, MA.

The burial will be private.
