Originally from Wilkes-Barre, Pa, she moved to Hollywood, Florida at the age of 11. She enjoyed the sunshine and beaches until 2008 when she moved, with her husband of 20 years, George Emanuel, to the open spaces and small town feel of High Springs, Florida. While in Hollywood, Jackie , as she was known to all, worked as an X-ray tech and raised her two beautiful daughters, Joy Reidenbach Leonard and Tammy Reidenbach Barbieri.
She is preceded in death by her mother and father Marion and John Richards and her brother, Johnny Richards. Jackie is survived by her husband, her sisters, Sandy Tindall and Gail Peranton Houlihan, her daughters, two sons-in-law, Jason and Jeff, four wonderful grandchildren, Gabriella(19), Miranda(16), Alex(11) and Ashlyn(6), and loving nieces and a nephews. Jackie left this world a better place for having been here. Her happy spirit will be cherished by all who knew her. Jackie loved her family, the Miami Marlins, the ocean, red licorice, Italian food, reading, holidays, and lipstick. To say she will be missed is an understatement. An Oceanside celebration of life will take place next year.
