Jacqueline Marjorie Glass, a cherished philanthropist and devoted family member, passed away peacefully on August 17, 2025, at the age of 94. Surrounded by her family and the compassionate care of Providence TrinityCare Hospice, she leaves behind a legacy of love and community service that touched countless lives.

Born in Brooklyn, New York, Jacqueline, affectionately known as Jacky, dedicated her life to her family and the well-being of her community. Alongside her late husband, Jerry Glass, she played a pivotal role in raising awareness and providing support for hospice care. Their commitment spanned over 30 years with the TrinityCare Foundation, where they made significant contributions to improve end-of-life care.

Legacy of Love and Service

Jacky was not only a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, but also a vibrant spirit who cherished music, travel, and sports, particularly tennis. Her home was a haven of warmth and laughter, fostering connections that enriched the lives of those around her.

She is survived by her five children, five grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren, who will carry forward her spirit of generosity and kindness. The family is comforted by the thought that she has reunited with her beloved husband, Jerry, and her grandson, Dylan, in eternal rest.

A Celebration of Life will take place on November 1 at 1 PM at Saint Peter’s by the Sea Presbyterian Church in Rancho Palos Verdes, followed by a reception. In honor of Jacky’s memory, the family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Providence TrinityCare Hospice Foundation. Contributions can be sent to:
