She was born June 21, 1954 in Ionia, Michigan, the youngest child of Lloyd E. Bonn and Katharine Schimansky Bonn. She was one of six children, her siblings being; Evalyn Ruth (Bonnie), Garner Cecil, Lloyd Edward (died at birth), Sandra Zoe and Marjorie Ann. Jackie started her education in 1959 when she attended kindergarten in the Ionia Public School system graduating from Ionia high School in June of 1972. the following September, Jackie started her college education at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Majoring in music. The 1955-1977 directories for Ionia County list Jackie as living at home with her parents at 1880 W. Main Street in Ionia. In 1974, she is listed as a student. IN 1976, after graduation from college, Jackie accepted employment with Borgess Hospital in Kalamazoo as an X-ray technician. After several years at Borgess, Jackie decided that she wanted more from her employment opportunities, so in 1992 she enrolled in Carnegie Institute in Detroit, Michigan. On March 25, 1994 she graduated as a Cardiovascular technologist and 1995 she accepted employment with the Advance Cardiac Health care of Kalamazoo. Also in 1995 Jackie took her boards and passed them. She was the only technician for Cardiovascular working there, and as a sideline was on call for Borgess Hospital when they needed her. This kept her very busy and as a consequence she did not get home for visits as regularly as she once did. On Sept 19, 1998 she passed the examination and became a Registered Cardiac Sonographer. "Advanced Cardia Health care of Kalamazoo is the first lab in Western Michigan to install a digital Echo system!" This was the news the Jackie gave when she called in November. She had completed several weeks of training on this new machine and was the only Cardiac Sonographer who read the new digital Echo machine. So she could sign her name: Ms. Jacqueline Bonn, BS, EDCS, RCVT. On Oct. 7, 2003 Jackie accepted employment with Borgess Hospital as a Cardiac Sonographer. The job opportunities and advancement in this hospital setting was advantageous for Jackie's employment advancement.
