In the six years Jackie did his country proud with honor. Jackie look on life as everyone was his friend. He had lots of hobbies; he loved to sing, write songs, drawing, music; he played the harmonica and the guitar; he loved fishing and cooking. Jackie was a Christian and was a member of the First Baptist Church (Cross Church) of Springdale. After leaving the Marines he would travel from his first home Springdale, Ark., to his second home in Honolulu, Hawaii, with his best friend, Ruben Jane, his Doberman pincher, his dog. While traveling, Jackie's health kept going down and his death was in Honolulu. Now that we have Jackie back home there will be a Celebration of Life Service at the National Cemetery in Fayetteville, Ark., on Friday, June 28, 2013, at 1 p.m. I am sure no one will forget the extraordinary grin that he had for all, which was his trademark.
