Jackie Carnahan Obituary
Jackie received her bachelor's, master's and Ph.D. in psychology from Kent State University. She retired in 2010 as risk manager at Time-Warner Cable. Warm and generous, Jackie cherished time with her grandchildren, rides on her Harley, her dogs, and volunteering with children. She had the biggest heart and loved to take care of everyone. Those who knew Jackie will always think of her when they hear an Elvis song or eat a good cookie.
Jackie was preceded in death by her parents and her sister, Lynda. She is survived by her husband of 27 years, Dick Carnahan; daughters, Joyce Rainey Long (Christopher) and Karen Stone (Greg); grandsons, Dylan Stone and Nathan and Adam Long; and her loving sisters and brothers, Barbara Smith, Kate Ankron, Gerri Baker, Deborah Austin, Bob Morgart, Ron Morgart, Jim Morgart, Laura Hall; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. She is also survived by her step-daughters, Suzie Carnahan, Gail Reed (Richard), Kimberly Carnahan, Heather Williamson (Rob); step-grandchildren, Jacob, Tristan, Alejandria Reed, Dalton Lowe, and Galataya Carnahan.
Per her request, there will be no memorial service. Memorial donations can be made in Jackie's name to Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

Jackie was a wonderful and kind soul. She will be missed greatly by all who were blessed to know her. Her humor and endless caring will always be part of my memories of her. God has indeed received a new angel to help him with all those in need. I will miss you so much my friend.

She was my friend. My best friend, for some 35 years. I miss her. And I will miss her for many years to come.
All I can do now is hang onto the promise of the resurrection and, of course, smile when I think back to the both of us wondering how we were going to explain to God some of the things that we did.

I worked with Jackie at TWC and she was one on the sweetest ladies I have ever met. Although I haven't seen her since her retirement I was so sad to hear of her passing. For the short time I knew her kindness and her cute giggle mean't the world to me. I used to talk to her about personal things in my life and she was such a good listener. I hope your family finds peace knowing that they were loved by such a wonderful woman.
