1939, in Fort Lewis, WA, and passed away after a hard fought battle
with advanced metastatic stage four breast cancer on November 16, 2018
surrounded by Love in her home sweet home she lived some of the best
years of her life with her boyfriend, Michael J. Clothier.

Jackie was amazingly talented with such a vibrant, beautiful soul, so
full of color. Most would say "…the life of the party". She sewed many
a dress for her daughters throughout their teenage years and as young
adults. If love could've saved her life, she would've lived forever
because she and Michael were full of life and love. Her passion was
with entertaining and that's just what she and Michael did in Lake
Havasu City. They sang their hearts out…together. One of the songs
they sang that encompassed their everlasting love was "all I ever need
is you" by Sonny and Cher, but this version was special as it was
performed by "Michael Jay and Jackie Lee", his bluesy girl. Lovebirds,
they certainly were.

Jackie was preceded in death by her parents, Jean and Harry Harding. A
loving mother, is survived by her children, David S. Dear, Kelley R.
Martin, Carrie J. Greathouse and son-in-heart, Daryl W. Greathouse.

A Celebration of Life will be held for loved ones to honor her full
and eventful life at her home in Lake Havasu City, AZ from 2-4 pm on
Tuesday, November 20, 2018.

"Butterflies are beautiful symbols of transformation and a common sign
sent from deceased loved ones that their spirit lives on. Your social
butterfly life you lived will live on in all of the lives you've
touched and your fingerprint will be a loving reminder to your
daughters that they will have a touch of Mom forever. Your wings were
ready but our hearts were not."
