Jacquelyne "Jackie" Cronan Owens

On Saturday, October 15, 2022, Jacquelyne (Jackie) Cronan Owens was called home to be with her Savior. A native of Louisiana, Jackie was born on December 31, 1937 in Port Allen. As a long time Baton Rouge resident, Jackie graduated from Istrouma High School and then settled down to marry what would become her loving husband of 64 years, Milton Leroy Owens. A devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, Jackie worked tirelessly to care for her family as she also supported her community through Christian servitude and volunteerism. She was an amazing homemaker, seamstress and care-giver. She immensely enjoyed tennis, travel and time with friends and family. Jackie was preceded in death by her parents, Thomas Larkin Cronan, Jr. and Edna Reidinger Cronan; her younger brother, Thomas Larkin Cronan, III; and her son, Andrew Larkin Owens. She is survived by her husband, Milton Leroy Owens; daughter, LeAnn Owens Mock’ son-in-law, Edward Mock; grandson, Hayden Owen Mock; and three granddaughters, Mrs. Allison Jackson Kaufman, Mrs. Emily Jackson Bassil, and Miss Molly Elizabeth Jackson. Additionally, she is survived by her sister and brother-in-law, Janice Luckett and the Rev. David Luckett; sister and brother-in-law, Joy Corcoran and Gene Corcoran; sister-in-law, Joan Cronan; and brother and sister-in-law The Rev. Jerry Cronan and Jenise Cronan; as well as a multitude of nieces and nephews. Jackie and Leroy chose Parkview Baptist Church to be their church home, where they have worshiped and served for the last 45 years. Jackie was a member of the choir, worked with the Children’s ministry, and was an original School Board member for Parkview’s Private School for many years. As this was a place that meant the world to her in lieu of flowers, we ask that you feel free to make a contribution to Parkview Baptist Church, 11795 Jefferson Hwy., Baton Rouge, LA 70816.

A Celebration of Life service will be held at Parkview Baptist Church on Saturday, October 22, 2022 from 11:00am until service time of 12:oo.
