"Hi Ruth, I don't get over to this site very often. I am on FB. My name there is Jacqueline Lee Simpson Howley. I never go by Jackie anymore so a name search using Jackie won't usually find me. How are you doing? Are you in Georgia? How are the kids?…"

About Me

I am very happily married to Mark Howley, 14th WC, since July 6, 1986. We still love and serve God. We have two wonderful kids who are Eph. 3:20. Joanna Abigail, (1988) a college grad (psychology SCL)and John-Mark Simpson,(1991) at Urbana University (double major, history and education). We have 3 cats, Jingle Bell, Jessie and Katie.

My Interests

I garden and sew. I still cut an occasional head of hair or stink up my house with a perm, but for the most part am no longer a professional cosmetologist. I love to read and I enjoy nothing better that to have a quiet night at home curled up with my favorite fella ,and best friend, in front of our fireplace. Both my kids were identified as having special needs early in their lives, and while I was learning about them and advocating for their rights, I learned to help other parents of children with disabilities. This has become my professional focus. As a family, we are all Disney fans and we go to WDW as often as we can afford. Mark and I think we like it so much because it reminds us of being at the Rock ( hot , crowded, fun and you meet really great people there). The kids love it because it is Disney. We have had some great vacations . Mark and John-Mark both love history and they are Civil War re-enactors. They belong to a regiment from Lima Ohio and they are planning a trip to Gettysburg to partake in the huge re-enactment there.

Employment or Career

I am employed as an Parent Mentor for the education of children with special needs, a mentor to parents and a consultant to schools. I provide support, information and training and function very much as a mediator. I also am a puppeteer with 5 puppets with special needs. I go into schools and colleges and work as a Disability Sensitivity and Awareness Trainer. I also am a mentor/tutor for a program that works to build academic and employment skills for youths at risk.

Music I Like

Just about anything. Rick Springfield is big in this house. I went to see Chiago and The Doobie Brothers. They put on a great show. I still love Carly Simon, and lots of 80's music. My daughter is a huge Duran Duran fan so we hear a LOT of 80"s music. I have taken her to see Duran Duran and she loves Rick Springfield so I have taken her to see him several times.

Books I Like

The Bible of course. I read biography, some fiction. I like classic literature. I've read almost all of Agatha Christie's novels and some Elizabeth George. All of Jane Austen, the Bronte's, Some of Dickens. Now that I have a Kindle and can get the classics for free! I am fascinated by what makes people tick. That is why I like biographies. I've read a ton of those and I like it when there are several to read about a person so I can get different perspectives. Of course I have lots of gardening books to torture myself with. All those beautiful gardens impossibly perfect. You just know that they had a team of gardener's there to make it just so, but I like to dream that I can do it too.

Television I like

Downton Abbey, Britcoms. I like the Big Bang Theory. If we have time and there is nothing we care to watch, we slip in a DVD. We are all movie buffs, especially old movies.

Movies I like

Romantic comedy. Some drama, Classics. I saw Lincoln most recently with my family. Recently seen : The King's Speech, Music and Lyrics , The Queen, The Lion in Winter, Carolina I am not keen on horror films. I had enough horror in my life before the Word.

Sports Teams I like

My son in the band at Urbana University (Go Blue Knights) so I go to those games. I live near OSU so I am a Buckeye. I am still not a fan of professional sport. My heart was broken by the Minnesota Vikings in the 70's and I have never recovered.

Hello Jacqueline, I had responded to you on my page, but realized you probably didn't know it was there. Still getting the hang of this. Thanks for the note. I still have my beautiful dogs, but probably different ones than the last time we were in contact. Now I have Lucy, the sweetest pomeranian in the world; and Cookie, the 5 pound chihuahua with the 105 pound attitude. I also have Emmett the cat who is in charge of us all.

Your daughter does look so much like you. She is very lovely. It is just so hard to belive that so much time has passed that so many people I knew as single, now have college aged children. Wasn't it just a couple of years ago that you were cutting my hair and making me feel like an attractive woman rather than an awkward freak of nature? You could have had a shingle outside of Emporia's hair cutting place (I can't think of what the Way used to call hair cuts back then) that said "Jacqueline's Hair Care and Self Esteem Salon". That's what I got anyway.

Hello to Mark and have a wonderful Valentines Day together.

Jacqueline,
So wonderful to hear from you and to see these great pictures. Joanna sure looks like her Mommy!
Sounds like you are still making a positive difference in this world. You always impressed me with your tender heart and whenever I think of you I smile. Keep in touch!
Love,
G

What a great picture!!
Yeah, the cold is quite the trip sometimes. This week I was in SE Alaska and it was absolutely freezing! It is very damp there and the cold cuts through you. I was in Fairbanks two weeks ago and it got down to -47 about noon, and it didn't feel anywhere near as cold to me. Right now, we are between 0 and -10, but we are on the dry side, too, so it still feels better than when I was in Juneau and Ketchikan. This time of year is always rough for us, since we have now had freezing temperatures since Sept nights and will not have snowless yards until April (or the end of March, if we are lucky). We all start getting a little crazy and planning trips somewhere warm (like Seattle, which is not really warm to some standards, but is a hell of a lot warmer than here). The lucky ones can get to Hawaii.
Much love, and dream of large plants growing where the snow is now piled...

Dear Jacqueline,

How Wonderful to see and hear from you! You don't know how many times I've thought of you throughout the years and wondered where and how you were. I so enjoyed rooming with you, being together in fellowship, and getting to know your beautiful heart! They are days and times I'll never forget.

It is so lovely to hear word of your happy family life. I remember well when your life with Mark was just beginning to blossom! Now to see your children so beautiful and full grown, I feel it's been a whole lifetime that's past even though my memory of you is as fresh as yesterday! Children do mark time! They look truly happy and like they are close with one another. The family resemblence is striking.

Well, please give my love and greetings to Mark. And know that you hold a very special and precious place in my heart, Jacqueline!

Much love,

Xristin
