His illness was long suffering, but we take peace in knowing he sits with the Lord today.

Two granddaughters, Courtney and Ashley Blevins and one great-grandson, Collin Hoilman. He had one daughter, Jacqueline Campbell of Elizabethton.

Bo wishes to give a special thanks to nephew, Gary Ledford of Nashville, and sister, Marsha Lowe of Johnson City. Another special thanks to his brother and sister in Christ, Bob and Jackie Wingler of Johnson City, for all they did in his last days.

The family cannot emotionally handle a traditional receiving of friends but invites everyone to attend the graveside service. Pastor Dean Presnell of Elizabethton will officiate the graveside service for Jackie on Tuesday, July 12, 2022 at 12:00 noon at Monte Vista Memorial Park, in the Garden of the Gospels.
