Jackie Lee Boergen, age 57, passed over to the Great Spirit on Tuesday, January 20, 2026, at 8:00 p.m.
She deeply cherished her Native American/Cherokee roots and carried it with pride. Jackie was a creative soul; she loved all forms of art, but writing was her true passion. Jackie used pen and paper to express her inner worlds, and her written words were her release. Music was one of her greatest loves and was often used as her love language. Jackie loved to dance and sing, as those close to her will always remember.
Jackie will be remembered for her creativity, her depth, and her unique flavor that she brought to every space she occupied. She will forever be loved and missed by many.
She is survived by her two daughters, Mysteria Pugh and Kindra Goodson; sister, Janie Koehler; nephews and niece, Jared, Dylan, and Falon, as well as her closest and most cherished friend of all, Pisces, her cat.
Jackie was preceded in death by her parents.
