BRETT JORDAN PUTNAM

SEPTEMBER 27, 1958-JANUARY 26, 2022

Posted

Brett Jordan Putnam, age 63, passed away peacefully January 26, 2022. He was born September 27, 1958, in Murfreesboro, TN.

Brett is survived by his loving wife of thirty-eight years, Susan; his children Christopher (Erin), Jonathan (Akane), and Sara; and his grandchildren Aeris and Taya.

Brett loved Jesus Christ. His smile told you so. He was warm and kind and always willing to love, help and serve everyone he met. A brilliant engineer and gifted craftsman, he could build or fix just about anything –something his kids took advantage of often! He loved to laugh with family at game night (Shanghai rum or dominoes!), ride railroads in his speeder, take photos, and watch movies on lazy weekends. He will be dearly missed.

He was preceded in death by parents Richard and Dolores and siblings Brenda, Bill, and Bob. His brother Bart lives in Coldwater, MI.

Private family services will be held with interment at Plainfield Township Cemetery.

A celebration of Brett’s life will be held in late June for all who knew and loved him. Overman-Jones Funeral Home, Plainfield, IL was entrusted with arrangements. For information please call 815-436-9221 or visit www.overman-jones.com.
