He preceded her in death on April 30, 1999. Jackie was an avid walker. She would walk several miles a day, weather permitting. She would even drive her car and park it on a side street on not so perfect days so she could walk all over town, doing her errands and smiling and greeting everyone she saw with a "hello." She loved to walk around Tipton City Park and also enjoyed visiting Tipton's Fairview Cemetery. In her earlier days, she had worked for Guide Lamp in Anderson and also at Perfect Circle in Tipton.
