On April 26, 1952 she married her soul mate, Robert Moriarity. They moved to Milwaukee where they raised their children. After losing her husband in 1990, Jackie and granddaughter Kelly moved back to La Crosse to be closer to Jackies large and loving family. She always considered La Crosse her home and was happy to spend her remaining years here.
She is survived by her brother Michael, a son Terry (Betty) Moriarity of Niagara, WI, daughter Ann (Gordon Butch) of St. Francis, WI, grandchildren, Kelly Moriarity of Onalaska, WI. Brandon (Jessica) Sexton of West Allis, WI, Lindsey and Molly Sexton of St. Francis, WI, great grandchildren Haley, DMetri, Gabriel, Teagin, Cecelia and Brandon Jr. She is also survived by her extended family, many nieces, nephews, and her infamous Bakers Dozens Cousins.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Ben and Pearl Boisen, her husband Robert Moriarity, her beloved sister Geri Kampmeier and daughter-in-law Lori Moriarity.
Jackie was a very kind woman and instantly accepted people for who they were. She will be missed by everyone whose life she touched. If you look up the definition of Grandma in the dictionary, you should find a picture of Grandma Jackie. When we think of her we should all smile and know she is watching over us, until we meet again.
