Jackie Mcentire

On Saturday, February 25th, our beloved mother moved in with the Lord. She was a wonderful wife, mother, Nonda, and friend to all. Jackie Deems McEntire was born March 11,1948, in Dalton, GA. She died peacefully in her home, surrounded by her family. Those who were there to greet her in heaven were her parents, Lois Ralston Deems and John Elston Deems, and her sister, Johnnie Webb. Her memory is kept alive by her husband, Robert L. McEntire, her son, Chad McEntire (Brittany), her daughter, Heather McEntire Young (Joe), her precious grandchildren, Tegan, Hadley, Sydney, Chadwick, Robert and Harper, and her sister, Vivian Ellis Bryant (Tarby). She has several very loved nieces and nephews, along with so many others she considered family and close friends that will forever miss and hold her memory dear.

Jackie was just a couple of weeks away from her 75th birthday, but we are rejoicing that she is celebrating that milestone in heaven with our Lord and Savior. We ask that on March 11th, you take a moment to remember her and thank God for the life she lived and continues to live through us all.

In lieu of flowers, the family greatly appreciates donations made in her name to the charities and church she held so dear: Moody Bible Institute (Radio) (820 North LaSalle Blvd., Chicago, IL 60610), Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (229 Peachtree St. NE, Atlanta, GA 30303), or Rock Bridge Community Church (121 West Crawford St., Dalton, GA 30720).
