Jackie Serviss, 47, of Lancashire Hall, Lancaster, passed away Saturday, March 21, 2015, from complications of a brain tumor.

Prior to admission to Lancashire Hall Jackie resided in Ephrata, with her sister, Elizabeth, brother-in-law, Mike, and nieces Alicia and Isabelle Groff.

Jackie was a member of Our Mother of Perpetual Help Church and a 1988 graduate of Ephrata Area High School. Jackie also attended Acadia Inc. for neuro rehabilitation for the past five years.

The family is grateful to the staff of therapists at Acadia who worked with Jackie to enrich her life.

Jackie was a former Avon representative and she also used her knitting skills to make and donate baby blankets to the Ephrata hospital.

For more than 20 years, Jackie volunteered her time with Our Mother of Perpetual Help kindergarten classes sharing her knowledge and love of sign language. Jackie also volunteered her time once a week at Ephrata Manor helping residents with bingo.

Jackie was predeceased by her mother, Alice (nee Muldowney); and her father, Bill.

Besides her sister, brother-in-law and nieces, Jackie is survived by several aunts and uncles: Loretta Muldowney, Jack and Pat Muldowney, Bill Muldowney, Ann Marie and Dave DeBolt, Jane Muldowney, and Kathy and Jeff Simmons.

Jackie was a bright spot in the lives of others and enriched all with her positive attitude despite the many challenges she faced throughout her life. She was greatly loved and will be missed by many cousins and friends.

Viewings will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, March 25, and from 10 to 10:45 a.m. on Thursday, March 26, at Gravenor Home For Funerals, 100 W. Main St., Ephrata. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11 a.m. on Thursday, March 26 at OMPH Church, 320 Church Ave. Ephrata. Final Commendation and Farewell will follow at Memory Gardens, East Cocalico Township.

In lieu of flowers and because of Jackie’s love for animals, donations to the Lancaster County SPCA, 848 S. Prince St., Lancaster, PA 17603-5812 in her memory would be much appreciated.
