Jacqueline “Jackie” Cloutier

April 14, 2024

Jacqueline “Jackie” (Monty) Cloutier (also known to many as Memere) passed away peacefully in her sleep on Sunday, April 14, 2024. A cherished mother, grandmother, wife, and friend, Jackie left a lasting impression on everyone she met with her vibrant personality and infectious joy. She was a beacon of light in her community, a force of nature known for her feisty spirit and sharp wit that brought laughter and warmth to any room.

Jackie is survived by her two daughters, Laura Dunlavey and Lorraine Neofotistos. She was a proud grandmother to four grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren, all of whom she adored deeply. She is preceded in death by her parents and eight siblings, as well as her beloved husband of 59 years, Robert Cloutier. With a heart overflowing with love for her family, Jackie danced through life with a rhythm that was uniquely her own. She could belt out a tune, kick off a dance party out of nowhere, and make even the most mundane moments feel like a celebration.

Her legacy of love, laughter, and music will live on in the hearts of those who knew her. Jackie’s life will be celebrated in a manner befitting her spirited personality. She will be greatly missed, but her joyous and youthful spirit will forever be a guiding light for her loved ones.
