She went to work for the Ward County Historical Commission at the Archives under Elizabeth Heath, a wonderful lady. They became very good friends as they shared a love for preserving the history of their beloved Monahans, Ward County and West Texas. She also fought hard to keep Ward County and West Texas from becoming the Nation’s nuclear waste dump.

She was very proud of her heritage. Jackilu was fun loving, interesting, adventuresome and reveled in knowledge. She knew more about oilfield work than any 10 women and could talk for hours about roughnecks and their work. She loved West Texas and the hard working people and knew most of the ranchers and their work. Several years ago, she found that she had cancer and she fought it tooth and nail. She eventually lost this battle on the evening of April 24, 2006, at the age of 77. She is survived by her 2 sons, John E.
