Jacqueline Parish Reynolds

Pensacola - Jackie, 88, passed away April 8, 2018. She was born in Jackson County, Florida, to George and Lois Beauchamp Parish. She graduated from Pensacola High School and Florida State University (FSU).

She was married to Bill Reynolds for 53 years. She was preceded in death by Bill, her parents, grandson Christopher, sisters Frances and Katrina, and brother Robert.

She is survived by her children and their spouses: Cindy and Bob, Becky and Bob, and Ben and Valera. She is also survived by her grandchildren and their spouses: Kevin and Jessica, Brittany and Erik, Katie and Jeremy, Blake and Taylor, Tami and Dustin, and Kim and Jeff. Her eight great-grandchildren: Bobby, Alek, Austin, Riley, Brennan, Jayden, Addison, and Olivia, also survive her. Additionally, she had many nieces, nephews, and cousins whom she loved greatly.

Jackie taught math in Escambia County for 35 years, the last 20 at Escambia High School. She and Bill enjoyed their retirement. She loved to read, travel, play bridge, spend time with her church family, attend and watch FSU sports, and especially enjoyed spending time with her great grandchildren. She was the best Mama, Nana, and GrandNana anyone could have. We loved her dearly and will miss her always.

The family wishes to give a special thank you to the staff at Sacred Heart Hospital emergency room, ICU, fourth floor; Dr. Martin, Dr. Morrison, and Dr. Amin; and Covenant Care Hospice for their loving care of our Mom.
