Jackie Miles Warren

Posted Sep 07, 2021 12:41 PM

Jackie Miles Warren left this world at Redbud Village in Plainville, KS on September 3, 2021, at the age of 85. He was born on January 17, 1936, to Miles A. Warren and Ruth M. (McCauley) Warren at the Warren Family Farm in Northern Ellis County, KS, with “Dr. Pete” AC Petterson assisting.

Jackie spent his life living in homes, with Redbud Village (Rooks County nursing home) for 50 years. In his early years, Jackie helped clean sidewalks and rake leaves. He enjoyed sitting by the windows watching cars and trucks and waiting for the trash trucks. He also watched the shed door to see if the keys were left in. He always knew if the help had a different vehicle or drove someone else since he loved to watch the cars. Jackie was always telling Ron Brin to come down and mow the grass. Ron was a former maintenance man at the home and Jackie thought the world of him.

Jackie leaves to mourn his sister Pat Wendling; nieces Melanie Wendling-Staab and Cassidy Pywell; his only aunt, Shirley Newell; and brother-in-law Leroy Boucher; step-brother Wendell Ouderkirk; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and many friends at the care center.

He is preceded in death by his parents Miles and Ruth; sisters Helen Keller and Jeanne Boucher; grandparents Ben and Tessie McCauley and John and Kate Warren; brothers-in-law Ed Keller and Gayhard Wendling.

A graveside service will be held on Wednesday, September 8, 2021, at 2:00 PM at Mt. Allen Cemetery in Hays, KS. Visitation will be held on Tuesday 2:00-8:00 PM with the family receiving friends 6:00 PM until the prayer vigil at 7:00 PM at the funeral home in Plainville.

Memorials are suggested to the donor’s choice and may be sent in care of Plumer-Overlease Funeral Home, 320 SW 2nd, Plainville, KS 67663.
