Jackie Orth
ORTH, Jackie Lou (Avery)
(Age 85)
Jackie passed away on September 27, 2018. She was born to Ed and Etta Avery on October 20, 1932 in Spokane, WA. Jackie was married to her husband Archie for 55 years before his death in 2008. Together they had 6 children; Kathy, Janet, Archie (Buddy), Kenny, Nancy, and Ricky. Jackie loved to help people.
She was the Queen of Community Service. Some of her affiliations were Kiwanis, BABs, American Legion Auxiliary, Bayview Chamber, and any and all fund raisers that were important to her community or country. She loved her family deeply and would do anything for them.
Jackie worked as a transportation coordinator at Commercial Creamery before retiring to Bayview in 1992 with Archie. They enjoyed many years of golfing, fishing, hunting, playing cards, dancing, and throwing huge parties with live music.
Jackie loved to have company. She could whip up a feast in a minutes notice. Her home was the place to be on all holidays. She belonged to an “elite” poker group which met every month. These ladies were serious!! They became very good friends and until her death remained in contact. Jackie had three different cancers she fought and won. She was 15 years cancer free because she kicked its butt! She was one tough lady.
She is preceded in death by her parents, her husband Archie, children Kathy, Buddy and Kenny. She is survived by her children Janet, Nancy, Ricky and several nieces, nephews and grandchildren. We will love and miss her forever.
Please join us in a Celebration of Life service (what a life she had!) on October 11, 2018 at the American Legion in Athol, ID. The service will be at 10:30 with a luncheon to follow. Please bring your memories of Jackie to share.
