Jacqueline Rene Clark
Affectionately known as Jackie, she was born to the parentage of the late Mary A. Clark and late Kenneth Dean on August 24, 1963 in Perry, Georgia.
She received her education in the Peach County graduating from Peach County High School Class of 1982.
Jackie loved the Lord Jesus Christ and accepted Him as her Lord and Savior at Smyrna Baptist Church as a young child.
After graduation, Jacqueline briefly attended Technical College. However, what she loved to do was cook; that was her passion and gift! She entered the restaurant chain working and serving in various roles. Along with her love for cooking, she was dedicated and committed to service, being a devoted caregiver and serving in any capacity she could lend a helping hand. Her selfless nature and vibrant spirt touched the lives of many.
To know Jackie is to love Jackie! She had a heart of gold. Jackie was full of life, love, and never met a stranger. She loved to host and could light up any room with her energetic and “outspoken” personality, sharing her thoughts with honesty and warmth (whether you liked it not). Jackie loved dancing, cooking, caring in any capacity she felt she could serve, and volunteering within her community. Her hospitality knew no boundaries.
Jacqueline transitioned from Earth to Heaven on Monday, October 14, 2024. She was preceded in transition by her parents, her Step-Mother Mary Dean, her sister, Martha Lynn Nelson, along with her Aunt & Uncle Annie Ruth Williams & Edward Clark.
