Jackie Mullins-Fidler Obituary

Jackie Lynn Mullins-Fidler

"Deputy Mullins"

Born March 29th, 1973 to her parents David and Linda Mullins. She grew up between the beaches of East Florida and the rolling hill cattle ranches of Iredell Texas. She graduated from Spruce Creek High School in Port Orange Florida in the Class of 1991. Jackie became a mommy in July of 1992 to her first daughter, Jessica Marie. She was baptized into Christ and became a member of South Haven Christian Church in March of 1998. She was married on April 7th, 1998 to Lenton G. Fidler Jr. She fulfilled her lifelong dream of becoming a law enforcement officer when she joined the Volusia County Sheriff's Department in 2001 and soon after became a school resource officer. That is where her light could shine as she was passionate to give guidance and help to "her kids", the students she served. In 2005, she became a mommy to her second daughter Olivia Hope. She became a troop leader to Girl Scout Troop 995 at her home in Edgewater Florida. Jackie retired from V.C.S.O. in May of 2019 after a career of mentoring and serving the students and residents of Volusia County that she called hers. In October of 2019,she began her battle with cancer. During her battle, she never lost her love for others and continued to put them before herself. Though her body lost its battle with cancer on February 24th, 2021, Jackie Lynn has won the war. She is in the arms of Christ where she will be in peace and happiness for eternity. Her leaving us has left a huge void but her love and life legacy has left its mark forever on this world. She will forever be missed but never forgotten. I will trust that God has fulfilled yet another part of his glorious plan. I will love you forever and will continue to strive to be the person you have helped me to become. Until the day I am called home to once again see your face, I love you to the moon and back. My love, my life, my Punkin, my wife. Jackie Lynn Mullins-Fidler

I’ve only met Jackie once . She came to my house with Lynton to pick up a boat one day . The look on her face to Lynton was like what are you gonna do with this . To me I was happy to see the boat go to a friend since it to had a special meaning to me . I think she finally liked the boat after Lynton cleaned it up .
I guess it really doesn’t matter how many times you meet someone to know how good of a person they are . I met her once but knew she had to be a special kinda women . You see Lynton never said one thing negative about his wife threw the years of our friendship. To make someone happy all the time takes a special kinda person . Jackie you are that special kinda person . I hope one day to be just like you to my other half .
Thank you for serving the community and thank you for always making my friend happy . Your gone but not forgotten.

Jackie was one of my South Daytona Police Explorers... I'll never forget the day she came to my office so excited to tell me that she just made Volusia County Deputy Sheriff... I followed her career & loving family on Facebook... So proud that she became a School Resource Deputy to best affect the kids of today to become responsible & productive adults of tomorrow... Somehow 20 years past & she was able to retire so young... She was also a Girl Scout Leader, giving so much of herself to others always... Jackie was blessed with a wholesome family, on a beautiful ranch-farm... Always active with her hard working husband, 2 daughters & her mom with farm chores, praising God, riding horses, 4-H club, FFA & all her friends... I saw what cancer was trying to take from her, yet she fought it like a trooper & rang that bell more than once, but it was to be, God needed her with Him to reassign her to Heaven High... God Bless all her family & friends; her legacy will live on till the day we are all called back home to be with Jackie, our loved ones & our Heavenly Father & His Son...

So sorry for your loss, our thoughts and prayers go out to Lenton, Jessie and Olivia; Jackie was a beautiful and kind soul. I would look forward to seeing her at Volusia County fair each year as she greeted me with a warm smile and huge hug, we would catch up on how our families were doing and it was so evident how incredibly proud she was of her beautiful family. She will be so missed! Love and prayers to the Fidler family. Melanie, Steve, Jen, Justin and Kayleigh Baggs

I first met Jackie as her counselor at Spruce Creek High School. We shared good times and bad during which we became friends and learned to trust each other. After her Graduation and my retirement we lost touch until she approached me one night in Red Lobster and filled me in on where life had taken her. She was proud to b a sheriff’s deputy and I was proud of her. Once again we lost touch till you caught up with me, Lenton. I was happy to see that you’d had a good relationship with each other but most especially with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As much as I hate her passing so young I can’t help but feel a little jealous that her faith has become sight. I know how hard it is to have to lay the love of your life in the arms of Jesus , Lenton , I want to remind you that The Word says "Weeping lasts for the night, but joy comes in the morning “. I’m grateful for the assurance of this truth that allows me to say ,” I’ll see you in the morning, Jackie ”

I have known Jackie for over 30 years. We grew up together and have been there for one another throughout thick and thin. I am so blessed to be able to call her my sister. She was an angel here for so many others in need and I know she’s smiling down on me now. I love her so very much and will dearly miss her until I can see her again.

Aunt Jackie was always firm. I believe, “Yes Ma’am and Yes Sir” was engraved in me through her. I can hear her voice now in the background “ Markie!” and me thinking... “Uh oh, I’m in trouble”.

She was always trying to save my reckless self. Down to the point that even through all covid precautions she made the effort to come see my baptism. It meant a lot to me and I know it did to her because for 20 years she knew I needed it haha .

I’m not great with words but I hope you’re proud of what little markie has become.
I love you auntie.
