OBITUARY: Jacquelynn Helberg Schenck, 1933-2021
Jacquelynn “Jackie” Helberg Schenck was born July 19, 1933 to Gladys V. and Vernon Leroy Hough. March 23, 2021, at 87 years of age, she passed on to be with her Lord and Savior. We are certain she is celebrating with her family and friends who passed on before her.
Jackie was born in Sanger, Calif. In 1939 her dad packed a huge truck, along with his wife and six children, and drove over 500 miles to Orleans, Calif. to live and work at a gold mine.
“Quite a switch from the city life! No paved roads, no electricity, no running water or indoor plumbing…” In 1942 the family moved to Scotia, and in 1945 they moved to Eureka. Jackie graduated from Eureka High School.
