Jacquelin
Donnally
Jun 18, 1935 — Aug 23, 2025
Jacquelin Donnally, born June 18, 1935, in Penn Yan, New York, passed away peacefully on August 23, 2025. A beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend, Jacquelin lived a vibrant life filled with love, laughter, and a strong connection to her community.
Jacquelin trained and worked as a dental hygienist in New York and Virginia, providing care and compassion in her work. She later became a successful entrepreneur, owning the Wyoming Store in Portland, IN, where she sold clothes and built lasting relationships with her customers. She then worked for the Bank of Geneva, where her warmth and professionalism made a strong impression.
Jacquelin shared an inseparable bond with her sister Shelia Cincotta, with whom she enjoyed countless adventures, from playing cards, board games, puzzles, and shopping. Her card and board game nights with neighbors Dave and Deb Lengrinch were legendary.
She is survived by her four children: Jim Donnally (Terry) of Houston, Texas; Ann Moser (Steve) of Louisville, Kentucky; Lynda Nicholson (Christopher) of Salt Lake City, Utah; and Jon Donnally (Kristy) of Jackson, Michigan. Jacquelin's legacy continues through her eight grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, who were the heart of her world.
A graveside service will be held at the Church of the Most Holy Trinity in Bryant, Indiana, on September 13, 2025, at 1:00 PM. Jacquelin's kindness, strength, and zest for life will be forever cherished by all who knew her. In place of flowers, the family requests donations be made to a charity of your choice in her memory.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Downing & Glancy Funeral Home in Geneva, Indiana.
