She is also survived by many nieces, nephews and cousins. Jackie lived life to the fullest, travelling and delighting in her family, after retiring from Ingles' Market in West Jefferson where she made lifelong friendships. Jackie was full of mischief and never met a stranger. Her kindness and compassion for others, especially children, was her hallmark. Jackie was known for welcoming others to her home for dinner and holidays. She enjoyed gardening, cooking, doing puzzles and sharing stories about her family. Her fresh apple cake will be missed at the Bennett reunions. She was a true country girl at heart with a fondness for nature and animals. She loved the mountains of Ashe County and spent many hours walking them, picking berries and enjoying their natural beauty. A celebration of life will be held on Friday, January 18th at 8 PM at Boone Family Funeral Home with Reverend Larry Shepherd officiating. Visitation with family will occur from 6-8 PM on Friday prior to the service.
