Jackie Lolkus of Ephrata, WA

Jackie was born on December 18, 1972, to Glenn and Carolyn Chamberlain. She attended Ephrata schools, where she graduated and met the love of her life, Mark Lolkus. Jackie and Mark welcomed their first son, Tyson, in 1989, and were married in 1991. They later welcomed Evan in 1997 and Jaime in 2003. Together, they built a beautiful life and raised their three children in Ephrata, Washington.

Jackie is survived by her loving husband, Mark; her children, Tyson (Kaitlyn), Evan (Evelyn), and Jaime; her cherished grandchildren, Aubree, Alijah, Isabella, and Hudson; her parents, Glenn and Carolyn Chamberlain; her in-laws, Mark and Pauline Lolkus; her siblings, Lorie (Brian) Parkinson, Tammie (Bret) Heileson, Sandi Lyman, Glenn (Anna) Chamberlain, Greg (Amy) Chamberlain, Wendy (Allen) Johns, and Jaime (Rob) Kallai; her sisters-in-law, Valerie (Justin) Yurian and Jessica (Seth) Hayes; and many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Harold and Isabella Chamberlain and Alfred and Lola Cummings; her aunt, Velvet Chamberlain; and her brother-in-law, Todd Lolkus.

Jackie was a devoted wife, a loving mother, and a proud grandmother. Her husband, children, and grandchildren were her entire world, and everything she did was rooted in love for them. She had a way of touching the lives of everyone around her with her kindness, warmth, and genuine spirit. Jackie could light up any room she entered, and those who met her never forgot her. Her smile was contagious, her love was endless, and she was truly one in a million.

Jackie will be deeply missed and forever remembered for the incredible wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, and friend she was to so many.

A private family service will be held to celebrate Jackie’s life.
