Dubby Perlmutter married Bernie Bernstein, Ann Perlmutter married Al Rudofsky, and Ruth married William Morrison. Jordon Perlmutter was a Denver builder, real estate developer, and property manager. He married Essie Lou Goldberg in 1953. In 1951, he founded Perl-Mack Enterprises with his cousin Sam Primack.

In the 1983 Perl-Mack was dissolved and Jordon and his eldest son Jay founded Perlmutter and Company. He married Essie Lou Goldberg in 1953.
