MADISON, Wis. (AP) Shenora Staten-Jordan felt lost when her father, Gary Lee Staten, died of COVID-19 in May. She hadn’t expected to lose him so soon at age 61 or for a contagious disease to hinder her goodbye.
All of that only strengthened her Milwaukee family’s wishes to give Staten a beloved father and grandfather who spent 30-plus years serving Milwaukee Public Schools the type of homegoing service he deserved, she said.
“We look at the news every day and we are seeing numbers of COVID-19 cases, and people that have lost their lives to COVID-19,” Staten-Jordan said. “And who he was as a person is minimized.”
