Obituary for JACQUELINE M. PAGE
Our beloved mother, Jacqueline Marlene Page peacefully transitioned from earth to glory on March 6, 2014 at her home in Saint Leonard, Maryland after a brief struggle with cancer.
Jacqueline was born February 17, 1934 in Baltimore, Maryland and was the daughter of Elizabeth Bell and George Rice.
Jacqueline was raised by her aunt and uncle, Eva and Archie Wallace. She was educated in Calvert County schools and upon graduation from high school relocated to New York. She was trained to be a hair stylist, but she held various other positions such as babysitter, factory worker, and a staff member of Bellevue Hospital before finally settling at the United States Post Office where she retired as a Supervisor.
In 1960, Jacqueline married the late Philip W. Page and from that union they had two sons, Philip Andre and Michael Clinton.
While residing in New York, Jacqueline was baptized and became a member of King of Glory Tabernacle Church. After retiring from the Post Office, she returned to her home in Saint Leonard, Maryland where she was attended Brooks United Methodist Church, where she was a member of the Sanctuary Choir and Chairperson of the Senior Ministry and Senior Circle. She also volunteered at the Southern Maryland Head Start Center, the Brooks United Methodist Church Food Pantry and the Calvert County Department of Social Services.
Jacqueline loved to laugh, listening to music, shopping, being with her family and having fun with friends. She was also proud of obtaining her driver’s license after the age of 65. She was an accomplished cook and baker; she will always be remembered for her gingerbread. Jacqueline touched the lives of many people with her smile and spirit.
Jacqueline will forever be remembered by her devoted sons Philip Andre Page(New City, NY) and Michael Clinton Page (St. Leonard, MD) , her daughter-in-law Patricia Page, her treasured grandchildren Michael Jr., Lauren, Sean, Dennis, Natera, Tamasia, Philip Jr., Delina, Alexis, Tierra, Jorel and Julian. Her cherished great grandchildren: Michael III, Shimel, Jhazelle, Rhamel, Jahmir and Ethan; her loving sister, Renee Bell; her niece and nephew, Beverly and Wayne Brooks; her dear friend, Ephonia Wills and unfortunately too many beloved cousins, nieces, nephews to list or even count. She was preceded in death by her oldest granddaughter Latoya Page and her older sister Jean Gustus.
