Jackie was born on March 29, 1942 in Hue, Vietnam, the daughter of Ramjidas Ramlal and Vo Thi Cam who preceded her in death. She was married on August 24, 1966 in Saigon, Vietnam to her childhood sweetheart, Quang Thanh Tran. She retired from 3M where she worked as a Master Inspector.
For those who knew Jackie, it was evident that she loved her family above all else! Every decision she made, every step she took, every penny she saved were all for her family. Jackie also loved to crochet and was a phenomenal cook. Her specialties were traditional Vietnamese delicacies and staples, but in reality, Jackie could cook anything. She loved Elvis Presley, Tom Jones, country music, and going to the movies with her 3M girlfriends. Jackie was “mom” to everyone who needed her. She was a faithful and spiritual woman whose every day kindness were second only to angels. Jackie was a beloved wife, a devoted mother, a gentle and generous daughter, sister, friend and neighbor. She made people laugh. She made people love her, and she will be missed!
Survivors include: her husband, Quang Thanh Tran of the home; one daughter, Trang Tran Myers of Keller, TX; one son, Vu Quang Tran of Grand Prairie, TX; four grandchildren, twins, Brandon and Lauren Tran, Eric Myers and Erin Myers; brothers Ran Jacquet, Michele Thinzilal, Vo Ngoc Hung, and Raj Clamart; sisters Nguyen Thi Ca, Susan Devi, and Michelle Hult.
