Fortified with the Sacraments of Holy Mother Church, Wednesday March 27, 2024. Beloved Mom to Christy (Ted) Wilkison. Loving Grams to Ben and Luke. Loving Sister to Judy (late Arthur) Verbeke and Mike (Debbie) Rieger and sister-in-law to Bob Vickers. Our dear Aunt, Great Aunt, cousin and cherished friend to many. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
Jackie is preceded in death by her parents, August and Edna Rieger, and sisters, Janet Galeski and Jean Vickers.
Jackie graduated from Notre Dame High School in 1971 and was a proud, lifelong Rebel. Jackie worked in the record room at St. Louis County Police for more than 20 years and then as a dispatcher at Arnold Police for 22 years. In addition, she worked part-time at Dierbergs until she hung up her apron in 2018. The only thing greater than her work ethic was her sense of humor.
Memorial Mass will be held on Thursday, April 11, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. at St. Andrew Catholic Church, 309 Hoffmeister Avenue, St. Louis, Missouri 63125.
Your family is in my thoughts & prayers. Jackie was an awesome neighbor. She always had a smile on her face & our conversations would always seem to end with a chuckle or two. She will be truly missed. Blessings to all of you.
Jean – Jackie’s next door neighbor
I am so sorry for your loss! I loved working with Jackie and the world will definitely be a little less bright without her in it.
Jackie was such a wonderful person, she always had a smile and of course baked goodies. Her friendship and sense of humor will always be remembered.
