She was born on August 20, 1926 in White Church, Missouri to Edwin and Dorothy Keen. After moving to Lansing, MI she met and married a newly discharged United States Marine named Kenneth Preadmore in 1949, who went on to become the Sheriff of Ingham County. Beginning in 1961 Jackie was a jail matron responsible for female inmates at the Ingham County Sheriff’s Department and retired in 1981.
Known for a love of antiques, fashion and not one to shy away from conversation, she was a genuine lady.
Jackie is survived by her daughter Kathy and son Scott. She was preceded in death by her husband Kenneth and son Mark Preadmore.
Due to COVID-19, a celebration of her life will occur in the future when appropriate.
The family would like to thank the staff of McLaren-Lansing Emergency Dept and especially the nursing staff on the 4th floor for the personal level of care Jackie received.
