I wish I knew the perfect thing to say to make it all better but those words don’t exist, so instead: To JB & family I am deeply sorry for the loss Mrs. Jackie. Mrs. Jackie was an inspiration to all who knew her. Mrs. Jackie was beautiful on the outside as well as the inside. Take your rest sweet princess.
I loved this lady! We sat together at away basketball games where she had driven the team. Always a fun time and interested in whatever was going on in your world. We compared restaurants and menus and she never failed to have the latest inside skinny on new places to eat. She will be terribly missed by Bosse fans….and me!
Jackie you were an amazing lady! Always left us with a smile. Thank you for encouraging me to be a bus driver, I loved it (my kids too.) You will be missed by many. Sending our thoughts and prayers to the family. ❤️🙏🏼
Jacqueline “Jackie” Mae Modlin, 76, passed away on July 15, 2023. She was born on September 4, 1946 to John Brantley and Charlotte (Grimm) Brantley in Evansville, Indiana.
Jackie had the most beautiful heart of gold. She was kind, compassionate, and loving. She enjoyed traveling, cooking, and spending time with friends and family. Jackie was a dedicated bus driver to EVSC for 35 years driving bus #4 while also being the main bus driver for Bosse athletics for 20 years. She was an avid Bosse football and basketball fan. Jackie was always a joy to be around wearing the biggest smile on her face. Jackie was especially proud of her grandchildren; she was their biggest cheerleader and loved them dearly. Jackie, otherwise known as, “Mama Mod” opened her home to any and all. She was a wonderful mother, wife, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. Jackie will be missed by all.
Jackie is survived by her son John “Johnny Mod” Modlin; grandchildren Jonathon (Kelly) Modlin and Chelsey Modlin; great-grandchild Kurrency, Nola, Aniyah, and Davin; sister-in-law Kay Brantley; many loving nieces, nephews, and extended family.
