Jacqueline Rae “Jackie” Sipe, age 88, of Lancaster and formerly Mount Gilead, passed away peacefully Tuesday morning, November 23, 2021. She was born in Ohio on July 21, 1933, to the late Avery Everett and Zimrode Margaret (Courtney) Hollanshed. Jackie graduated from Cardington High School. Finding true love, Jackie married Donald Eugene “Don” Sipe on September 27, 1953. After high school Jackie worked in her parent’s restaurant in Waldo, OH called Holly's Restaurant. Don was in the Army during this time. Jackie was a mother and homemaker first but she also worked part time outside the home. She worked for several years at the Union Store in Mt. Gilead. Later she went to work for the Morrow County Sheriff's Office as the cook for the prisoners where she retired from. Donald was a welder by trade and worked for several companies as well as having his own welding shop in Edison. He and Jackie later purchased DJ’s Drive Thru in Mt. Gilead and they ran that until Dons death in September of 1995. Jackie moved to Lancaster, OH where she got an apartment in the Pershing House which is a complex for residents over 50. She made many friends and started a card group that played cards several days a week as well as a weekly Bingo game. Occasionally the group met for dinner and a movie night. She enjoyed many years there with her friends. Last December she moved in with her oldest daughter after an illness that made it difficult for her to stay home alone. She loved playing cards, spending time with her family, traveling, and spending time outdoors. Jackie was always up for an adventure. Her favorite place would be wherever her family was. She loved watching her grandchildren’s sports and activities. She enjoyed crochet, knitting, sewing, reading & watching sports or old westerns on TV.
