Obituary
A memorial service is scheduled for Monday, April 25, 2022 at 10:00 A.M. in The Way Church, 811 W. Taft Ave., Sapulpa, OK. 74066. The family is inviting guests to join them for a visitation after the memorial service in the home of Chad and Carisa Smith from 3:00 P.M. - 6:00 P.M.

Jacqueline Jo Fisher Oats "Jackie" was born August 21, 1951 in Vinita, Oklahoma. She graduated to Heaven April 18, 2022 in Sapulpa, Oklahoma.

Jackie grew up on the westside of Tulsa and graduated in 1969 from Daniel Webster High School. Her first job was at TG&Y in Crystal City. After high school, she went on to marry and started her family with a daughter. She worked in billing and bookkeeping for most of her career. In 1981, she married B.L. Oats, Jr. and added a son to complete their family.

Jackie spent many of her later years as a caterer for Sigma Chi Fraternity at Tulsa University and as a cook for her church. She made a lasting impression on the students and even hosted dinners on holidays for boys who couldn't travel home. Jackie was a talented and creative cook who enjoyed trying out new recipes and sharing the secrets of her favorite standbys. She loved cooking and serving others and made countless friends doing so.

At the age of 11 she asked Jesus to come into her heart and she received a new name as "Christian." She had an early desire to enter the mission field and particularly felt called to Egypt. Although she did not see that fulfilled, she did visit Egypt later in life and had many great experiences to share with others. As a Christian, she loved serving the Lord and taught youth and teens for Sunday School and summer church camps for many years. She was a greeter and even a parking lot attendant. She made lifelong friendships through these experiences and was thankful for each. Jackie was passionate about telling others about Jesus and his love for her and them. Although she had struggles, the one constant in her life was her faith in Jesus and His provision for her.

The joy of her life was any time spent with her children and grandchildren. For her kids, she volunteered countless hours as a band mom, sewed miles of elastic to ballet shoes, and shuttled van loads of kids to activities. For her grandchildren, she was always delighted to play games, bake cookies, make costumes, attend sporting events as an enthusiastic sideline cheerleader, and video all of their performances.

Her loyalty and devotion to her family and friends was unsurpassed. A benevolent giver, she was always ready to help anyone in need. She would be by your side at a moment's notice with support, love, prayers, and hugs. She LOVED hosting family gatherings and reunions and was the organizer of crazy games for all to play. An adept Scrabble player, not many could match her ability to create high scoring words.

She also loved to travel particularly to the beach and planned many family road trips where adventures ensued with laughter for days.

Jackie was the youngest of 14 children to Wesley and Marguerite Fisher. She was predeceased by her parents; siblings Frankie, Mary, Eva Sue, Maxine, Carol Ann, Tommy, Raymond, Barbara Mae, and Carlene. She is survived by sisters Patsy Hackworth and her husband Jack, Billie Hardy, Doris White, brother Walter Fisher and his wife Brenda. She is also survived by daughter Carisa Smith and her husband Chad, grandchildren Ella, Harison, and Crosley; son, Jason Oats. She is leaving behind 28 nieces and nephews, 28 great nieces and nephews, 8 great-great nieces and nephews and many dear friends.

Jacqueline Jo had many names over her lifetime …. Jackie, Sister Jackie, Auntie, Aunt Jackie, Mrs. Oats, Mom, and her favorite "GooGoo," But whatever you may have called her, all of you could call her "friend".
