On Tuesday, July 2, 2019, Jacque Greene, beloved grandmother of 4 grandchildren Drew, Bella, Beau, and Melani Ortega and adored sister of Lisa Smith and Edward M. Kennedy, passed away at the age of 76. Jacque was born on October 6, 1942 in Rowan County, North Carolina to Edward and Kathryne Kennedy. She was a proud business owner and a lifetime active member of the Chow Chow community with the American Kennel Club. She was the proud mother of Asheley, who passed December 6, 2014, and is survived by her 4 grandchildren and 2 siblings, with her brother being unreachable at this time.
Jacque was passionate about her chows and dedicated her life to rescuing and showing her beloved fur babies. When she walked in a room you could feel her infectious spirit and energy, and anyone who met Jacque can attest to this. She was 5'0 feet of pure charisma that she doted on her grandchildren, who were the apple of her eye. Her legacy was one of tender compassion and strong fortitude which she imparted on her family every day.
Private memorial services will be conducted on Saturday, July 20, 2019.
