Jacqueline Lee
Jacqueline A. Lee, 83, of Henderson, Nevada, passed away peacefully on December 1, 2025, at Genesis Healthcare in Zanesville, Ohio. Born on August 23, 1942, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Jackie lived a vibrant and full life, marked by her adventurous spirit and unwavering optimism. Jackie’s early years in LaCrosse, Wisconsin laid the foundation for a life characterized by courage and the pursuit of happiness. The beloved daughter of the late John J. and Marjorie (Kolbo) Pitz, she grew up alongside her brothers, the late Richard and George Pitz. In pursuit of new horizons, Jackie relocated to Henderson, Nevada, where she would spend most of her adult life basking in the bright lights of Las Vegas. Her career in the casino industry was both illustrious and impactful; she worked diligently as a cashier and later contributed to the food industry, where she played a pivotal role in developing and opening several new dining venues. Jackie’s dedication to her work was evident in her many successful years of service before retiring from The Luxor. Jackie’s life was not solely defined by her work; her passion for life extended to her personal interests and her family. A fervent supporter of the Green Bay Packers, she could always be found cheering them to victory. Her hobbies included playing bingo, where she relished the camaraderie and excitement, and crocheting, a skill through which she crafted countless treasures for her loved ones. Jackie’s legacy lives on through her cherished family. She is survived by her devoted son and daughter-in-law, Jeffrey and Sheila Lee of Roseville, and her adored grandchild, Justin W. Lee, and his wife, Ashley, of Ohio. Jackie took immense joy in her role as a great-grandmother to Hayden, Jace, and Braxton Lee. Also mourning her loss are her sisters-in-law, Colleen Pitz of La Crosse, Wisconsin, and Christine Pitz of North Carolina, who will remember Jackie as both family and a dear friend. No services will be observed, and a dignified cremation will take place under the direction of Ross-Frash Funeral Homes, 33 N. Main Street, Roseville.
