A 1959 graduate of Lincoln High School in Warren, MI, Jacquie went on to earn a BS from Western Michigan in 1964 and earned a Master of Education from Wright State University in 1989. Jacquie and Ron moved from Michigan to Kettering in 1968 into the house where they would raise their 3 boys, create beautiful award-winning gardens, and live the remainder of their days. She was a committed elementary teacher at Ascension Catholic School and spent decades showing young students how "science is fun!" She always thought of others over herself. Jacquie's other passions included playing tennis, crafting, gardening and being a wonderful grandma.
