Jacqueline Fisher

Jacqueline Fisher, age 57, of Uhrichsville, died peacefully Saturday, March 31, 2012 in the Dover home of her daughter following a brief and aggressive battle with lung cancer.

A daughter of Gene and Betty (Wadsworth) Greenwalt of Cambridge, Ohio, Jackie, as she was known to those who loved her, was born at Warren, Ohio on February 13, 1955.

She attended the former Lakeland High School and continued her education by obtaining a Medical Assistant Certification.

For the past number of years Jackie had resided in Florida, where she worked in various capacities for retail stores around the area in which she lived. In 2010 she relocated to the Tuscarawas Valley and began working as a customer service associate for Lowe’s at New Philadelphia.

Jackie enjoyed life to the fullest and took every opportunity she had to spend time out-of-doors. It did not matter if she were sitting oceanside along the Florida Keys sipping on her favorite drink, a strawberry daiquiri, riding along the open roads on a Harley, or whether she was working outside her home tending to her landscaping, she loved being in the sun. She also had a knack for tending to indoor plants and was able to keep many plants alive that others in her family could not.

Among her many passions in life, Jackie enjoyed “retail therapy”, often finding a new pair of shoes or a special purse to bring home. Additionally, she loved caring for her special Chihuahua, Chanel.

In addition to her parents, Jackie will be missed by her children, Jennifer Losey of Dover and Jeremy Wayne Fisher of Wichita, Kansas; and two granddaughters, Ashley and Kayla Losey.

Completing the family are three siblings, Deborah Greenwalt, Cheryl Rizer, and Ronald Greenwalt as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and special friends.

Jackie was preceded in death by her former husband, Douglas Wayne Fisher, as well as her maternal and paternal grandparents.

A memorial gathering will be held on Saturday, April 14, 2012 in the Geib Funeral Center at Dover from 2:00 – 3:00 pm where a service celebrating Jackie’s love for life will begin at 3:00 PM. Cremation care has been handled through Geib’s Tuscarawas Valley Crematory at Dover.

Those wishing to make a contribution in Jackie’s memory are asked to refer to the family on special donation arrangements.
