Jacqueline Dickinson Moore, 92, Springfield, departed this life on August 6, 2016. She was born May 27, 1924, in Sanford, Florida, to Joseph J. Dickinson and Sinah Millen Dickinson.

She graduated from Orlando Senior High School in 1941, and received her R.N. from the Jefferson College of Nursing, Philadelphia, in 1944.

Jackie served as a 1st Lieutenant in the United States Air Force from 1953 to 1956, and was stationed at Burtonwood Air Force Base, Warrington, Cheshire, England. She took full advantage of the opportunity to travel, visiting Egypt, Germany, Ireland, and Switzerland. While at Burtonwood, she met her husband of sixty years, Howard Groebe Moore, of Cameron, Missouri, who was serving in the USAF as assistant air installations officer.  They were married in Birmingham, Alabama on May 28, 1956.

Jackie and Howard moved to Springfield in 1958. She worked as a nurse at Smith Glynn Calloway Clinic, and later raised two children. Jackie was an active member of Grace United Methodist Church for forty years, leading the church prayer chain up into her 90s. She enjoyed antiquing, crossword puzzles, and reading thrillers, and fully believed that if "you don't use it, you'll lose it", staying active and healthy throughout her life.
