Jacqueline (Jackie) T. Fair

NASHUA—Jacqueline T. Fair, age 74, of Nashua passed away unexpectedly on September 26, 2018.

Born in Nashua on February, 9, 1944, she was the daughter of the late Simon and Jean D’Arc (St. Laurent) Sirois.  She was a graduate of St. Louis High School in Nashua, and later went on to become the bookkeeper at Infant Jesus Church, where she worked for the last 26 years.

In her free time, Jackie loved reading, crafting, watching the Red Sox and game shows, and playing cards with her many siblings.  Her family and her faith were the most important things in the world to her.  Watching her grandchildren grow and having her family around her were the greatest joys of her life, and truly made her who she was.  Whether it was attending one of her grandchildren’s soccer games or plays, or showing off their many artistic talents to others, she was their biggest champion.  Never could you find a more supportive and caring mother, grandmother and friend, than Jackie.  Her unconditional love was unmatched and will be forever missed.
