Drummond - Abeyta
Jacquelyn I. Drummond - Abeyta
Sept. 25, 1953 - Nov. 09, 2017
She was a devout Christian and a beautiful person. She gave without expectation; loved without condition; and preferred compassion to judgment. She made the most of every day and never missed a chance to love on those around her. Jacquelyn was an angel in this life, and it is only fitting she will now be an angel for eternity.
She is survived by her rock of a husband Lorenzo (Larry) Abeyta; her children: Howard Drummond Jr., Chad Drummond, Cari and Troy Matthews, Cheri and Randy Epler, Todd and Traci Abeyta, and Emily Johnston; her grandchildren: Madison, her two favorite twins: Asher and Aidan, Erin, Seth, Logan, Alex, Aspen, Taylor, Brody, and Bailey; Doris Clarke, Carol Abeyta, Jimmy Drummond, Rita Drummond, Becky Drummond and a man she has always felt to be her family Howard Drummond Sr..
At her request, no public services will be held.
"Blessed are those who give without remembering and take without forgetting."
