She worked for over 25 years at Rawlings before retiring. She also worked in Home Healthcare for several years.

She enjoyed quilting, fishing, playing cards, puzzles and playing dominoes with anyone that would play and her grandkids. She also enjoyed her scratchers…. Jackie had a talent of patching blue jeans where the patch would out last the blue jeans.
