Jacqueline Ann Jones was born on April 24, 1956, in Pensacola, Florida, to Marvin and
Rosamary Jones. She was their only child. At the age of eight, she moved with her parents to San Diego, California, where she would go on to shape a remarkable life that touched many.
Jackie, as she was affectionately called by her family and friends, was a woman of quiet strength. She attended Emerson Elementary, Roosevelt Middle School, and Lincoln High School in San Diego, where she was a proud member of the Drill Team. After graduating from high school, Jackie pursued her education at Job Corps in Los Angeles, California, where she studied nursing and became a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN), a career she would dedicate herself to for several years.
Jackie has three girls: Tiffany, Twyla, and Tramaine. She made them her top priority and encouraged them to explore extracurricular activities, helping them discover their passions and develop new skills. After earning her Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) from San Diego City College, she became a registered nurse (RN). She went on to earn her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), then continued her studies and earned her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) from United States University. Her career at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center spanned over four decades, where she earned respect and recognition for her exceptional, compassionate care.
Jackie was baptized and filled with the Holy Ghost in her preteen years. Jackie’s spiritual journey was foundational to who she was, and she carried that faith into every aspect of her life. She was a dedicated member of Truth Apostolic Community Church where she directed the children’s choir.
Whether it was her meticulous quilting, her sewing, or her baking—especially her famous 7-Up cake, Jackie’s craftsmanship reflected her warmth and thoughtfulness.
She passed away on Thursday, January 30, 2025, but her memory will forever be a guiding light for those who knew and loved her.
Jackie is survived by her loving daughters; Twyla and Tramaine, her daughter Tiffany’s beloved dog Lucy (Lulu), and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, godchildren, extended family, and friends, all of whom celebrate her homegoing and cherish the legacy she leaves behind.
Jacqueline Ann Jones will be deeply missed, but her spirit, strength, and love will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her.
