Jaclyn “Jackie” Timmer

May 29, 1951 ~
January 2, 2026

Jaclyn Fae Timmer, age 74, of Hudsonville, Michigan, passed away on Friday, January 2, 2026. Known to many as Jackie, she will be lovingly remembered for her generous heart, creative spirit, and deep devotion to her family.

Born May 29, 1951, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, her West Michigan roots shaped her into a compassionate and hardworking woman who found fulfillment in both the simple and meaningful moments of life. Jackie’s home was the heart of many cherished memories. One of her greatest joys was creating a welcoming place for her family to come together. She loved hosting family gatherings and filling her home with laughter, conversation, and good food.

Jackie could often be found in her yard, one of her greatest passions. She took pride in her beautiful flower gardens and had a special talent for creating unique yard art from whatever she could find.

She was preceded in death by her parents, John and Sylvia DeWinter. She is survived by her children, Chad (Jennifer) Timmer, Travis (Jill) Timmer, and Seth (Dayna) Timmer; her grandchildren, Jaden (Lauren) Timmer, Aiva Timmer, Taylor Timmer, Alexa Timmer, Brody Timmer, and Dallas Timmer; her siblings, Jody (Ben) Andrus, Mike (Deb) DeWinter, and Jaime Doornbos; as well as her many nieces and nephews and great-nieces and great-nephews, all of whom she loved deeply.

Jackie's love, kindness and the memories she created will live on through her family and all who knew her.

I remember Jackie fondly as former Jenison Chr. School & Unity Christian HS students together. Her grandparents, "Toots & Curly" were good friends of my Grandparents Sid & Kay Glashower, and my Mom grew up with her Dad, John DeWinter. I also worked at Fairlanes for her Uncles Don and Bob Wierenga. So many memories and generations. Prayers for her family & friends who will miss her...

I remember our family gathering at your house with your boys, and having so much fun snowmobiling. You were always so happy and it was always a good time when we all got together. You were such a caring person and will be greatly missed by family and friends.

I’m so sad to hear of Jackie’s passing. So many good memories of growing up together in the neighborhood, riding the school bus, eventually going on dates, working together, and snowmobiling. Every now and then we would run in to each other and catch up on things. She will be missed. My condolences to your families.
