Margaret Jaynelle Cash

Oklahoma City - Unconditional love. This is what Margaret Jaynelle Cash (Jaynelle) began to bring into the world on September 1st, 1941. She spent her life generously handing it out to all who knew her until her last day; September 3rd, 2021.

As everyone's top cheerleader and encourager, she led the way in celebrating each person in her family whether it be birthdays, weddings, new additions, graduations or just because it was Tuesday. Family was her passion and it was always on full display. As the family grew, newborns and new additions to the family were wholeheartedly loved and welcomed without hesitation. Being loved by so many meant affectionate nicknames were plentiful. You could easily turn her head by uttering names such as Jaynelle, Nelle, Momma, Mom, Memaw, Grandma, and Poogie, among others.

She dearly loved her two sons she called her babies. Jaynelle ("Momma") worked hard and led by example as she strove to instill lifelong values and ethics. She was always quick with a kind word and an optimistic outlook. As Mike and Russell grew, she was a constant source of support from the sidelines or the bleachers or while giving a hug. She was their biggest cheerleader whether it be sports or life in general.

Friends usually became close friends and never wavered in their admiration and love for Jaynelle. It was her enthusiasm, optimism, knowledge, humility, and selflessness that also set her apart. Those who paused, even for a short while, to discover who she was, were always rewarded.

She was a woman of many talents, skills, and organization. The Oklahoma Ceramic Association awarded her numerous ribbons and trophies for her porcelain doll creations over the span of several years. It was just one of her past times which included, counted cross-stitch, sewing, crochet, leather work, Tole painting, ceramic figurines, quilting, and square dancing among others. She'll also be remembered for her joyful and animated singing with grandchildren. With talent, patience, planning and a steely determination, she created over 200 quilts. Her highly coveted quilts were lovingly given to family and friends over the years. Television viewers were treated to her and her husband's square dancing performances in the early years of their marriage.

It wasn't just talent, creativity, and skill that were her gifts, but also intelligence. While in high school, she demonstrated exceptional competence in all required areas of study, thus being offered the opportunity to graduate a full year ahead of schedule. Of course, she opted to remain in school with friends. While choosing to prepare to support her sons' desires to obtain a college degree, she attended the South Oklahoma City Junior College to obtain her own degree in accounting. Shining brightly, again, she tutored pupils in her class while studying for the same classes. Throughout her life, she served as the compendium of knowledge of her family and extended family history…the family Google.

She is the daughter of Fred and Margaret Ashley and sister to Lou, Lloyd, Joellen, and Johnny, all of whom preceded her in death. Her legacy cannot be contained in this writing…it lives on with and in her entire family. Her youngest son, William Russell Cash, went on years ago to greet her in Heaven. Those that remain include her husband of 62 years, Ed Cash, her oldest son, Mike Cash and his wife Mitzi, daughter-in-law, Gayle Cash, and sister-in-law, Susie Ashley. Grandchildren and their spouses include Janae and Marlo Rivera, Kiley and Chris Valentas, Jennie Harris, Scott Cash, Brandon Cash and Ann Brown, Zackary Cash, and Orin Cash. Great grandchildren include Zoie, Lily, Sophie, Hazel, Jacob, Eloise, Olive, Walter, Harvey, Izetta, and Maia.

Her absence is greatly felt by all who knew her. Those who knew her live richer lives because of it. The way she loved and lived her life continues to light the way for us all. With Jesus Christ in her heart, she demonstrated what the world needs now more than ever…unconditional love.
