     Jacqueline was born in Central City, Nebraska, on July 29th, 1964 to Richard and Patty (Wall) Krance. She graduated from Central City High School in 1982. Jacque continued her education attending Hasting Community College. During her lifetime she was employed as the most beloved "Story lady" at the Presbyterian Preschool in Central City. Jacqueline continued her passion to nurture children through tutoring many years. Jacque was a devout secretary for Grace Lutheran Church in Central City. She was also the "Avon lady" committed to making every woman a little younger and more beautiful and helped men to smell better.

     Jacque enjoyed all genres of upbeat, happy music that she joyfully danced to (as she was a Krance and dancing runs in their DNA). She lovingly spoiled her visiting feathered friends with gourmet bird seed and jelly for hummingbirds. She was revered as a "Sun goddess" and loved being in the sun at home and at the lake. Her soul was genuinely solar powered. Jacque was a loyal fan to Central City sports, Nebraska football and volleyball, and the Dallas Cowboys.

     Jacqueline was a friend to All family, friends, caregivers, and neighbors.
