Jacqueline "Jackie" Gianoulis, 61, of Lafayette, IN, entered into rest on November 12, 2025. She was surrounded by family and her best friend.
Jackie was preceded in death by her parents, John & Jessie Gianoulis, her brother, John Gianoulis, and her sister, Peggy Thacker.
She is survived by her oldest sister Alice Everhart (Edward); sister-in-law, Meg Gianoulis; nephews, Duane Everhart (Cindy), Chris Burch (Samra), Jon Burch (Mindy), and David Gianoulis; nieces, Michelle Parsons (Ron) and Barbara Gianoulis; many great- nephews and great-nieces; her best friend, Amanda Brown and many other friends over the years.
Jackie was a Purdue University Graduate and loved Purdue sports. Her smile and laugh were contagious and she had appreciation for God's creatures especially penguins. She was loved by many and was a very special person. She will be remembered fondly and deeply missed.
To honor Jackie's final wishes there are no immediate plans for a visitation or funeral. A Celebration of Life Memorial will be held at a later date. Burial will be in Johnson Cemetery in Stockwell.
