Jacqulin "Jackie" Cooper Erdmann Ingle, a woman of grace, timeless beauty and strength, left us to be with the Lord on Monday, November 3, 2025, surrounded by her loved ones.
Born to Lewis and Lucille Cooper, Jackie lived a beautiful life filled with love, faith, and purpose. She was a devoted Mother, Sister, Aunt, Life partner, and Gigi to her grandchildren who were the light of her life.
Jackie was a proud member of Sagebrush Church in Albuquerque. She was active in the International Order of Rainbow for Girls, serving as Worthy Advisor and later as Grand Charity, representing New Mexico at the Grand Assembly in Hawaii.
She attended Eastern New Mexico University, where she was a Chi Omega and a Little Sister of Sigma Nu. Jackie partnered in the Running N Cattle Co., and retired from the New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions after a dedicated career from 1999 to 2013. Through Jacqulin's Modeling and Finishing School, she taught young women the value of grace and professionalism, mentoring many who went on to achieve their dreams - including those in the Miss America Program. Jackie also served her community with a generous heart through the Rondald McDonald House Charities.
Jackie's beauty, both inside and out, will live on in all who knew her. She is survived by her son Nathan Erdmann and daughter-in-law Maxi, her grandchildren, Claudia, Chloe, Gracie Cate and Cash. Sister Jenny Ann Clemmons, Niece Rebecca Davis and husband Chad Davis, their children Skyler and Cooper. Niece Victoria Clemmons. Niece Marissa Olson and husband Matt Olson, their children Acey, Mayah, Cross and Merrick. Her very significant other, Tom Roach, his daughter Jessica Roach-Sorenson and husband Bobby, and their children Harper and Colten.
Jackie's elegance and warmth will remain in the hearts of all who knew her, a lasting testament to a life that brought beauty wherever she walked.
"Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all of the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." - Psalm 23:6
