Jackie Lea Mobley (Larrance) left this earth peacefully, with her husband by her side, on September 4, 2025. She was born on October 3, 1966, in Kansas. She married the love of her life, Joe Mobley, in 1989. She is reunited with her brother, Terry; her mother, Wilma; and her father, Virgil. She is survived by her husband, Joe; two daughters, Cory Mobley and Terri (Dustin) Davis; and three grandchildren that she cherished very much, Chris, Astraya, and Walker. Jackie worked in healthcare for most of her life. She started her career working at Olympia Fields Hospital. Her and her family moved to Paxton, where she worked at Gibson City Annex. She then grew to love home health. She loved all her clients, as well as their families. She was a natural caretaker. She loved spending as much time with her family as she could. Jackie was a loving, supportive, and caring person, who had a heart of gold. She loved to joke around and make people laugh; you never knew what she was going to say. Jackie always kept you on your toes. She grew up at the racetrack, helping her brother and father race. The family would like to thank Carle Home Health Care, our nurse, Ashley, Carle Hospice, Dan and Rita Edison, and Cox-Knapp Funeral Home. Terri would also like to thank her father, Joe, for taking such great care of Jackie all these years, especially the last two years. A celebration of Jackie's life will be held at a later time.
