Mrs. Jackie Monique (Bolling) Hurt

Jackie Monique Bolling Hurt was born on October 5, 1985 to Tracy Allen and Morris Leonard “Nard” Bolling in Atlanta, Georgia. Even at a young age, her intellect, creativity, spunky attitude, and genuine love for family was seen by everyone she met. Jackie’s spiritual relationship with Christ started at a very young age where she enjoyed going to church with her grandparents. She was affectionately named after her maternal grandmother Jackie, earning her the nickname “Baby Jackie.” Jackie was lovingly co-parented by her paternal grandparents, Morris and Marie Bolling.

Jackie matriculated through the Atlanta Public School System where she earned many academic awards from Fickett Elementary, Bunche Middle School, and D.M. Therrell High School.

Jackie was slated to earn her Master’s degree in Education in December of 2021. From Georgia to Hawaii, Jackie served her students with creativity, professionalism and care. She had a special passion for children with disabilities often referring to them as her “babies.” Jackie was also accomplished across multiple professional arenas having started her own business and earned multi-field certifications.

On March 11, 2016, Jackie was joined in matrimony to Tamara Hurt. Jackie loved the adventure, friendships, and sense of purpose she found in being an Army wife. Together, they traveled the world and followed their dreams. Their most recent duty station was in the tropical paradise of Oahu, Hawaii. Jackie and Tamara were proud animal parents of 1 cat Kobe, and 2 dogs Jasmine and Kingston.

In addition to being a wife, scholar, business owner, and educator, Jackie had a strong love for FAMILY. She was her mother Tracy’s best friend, and her sister Sierra’s trusted companion.

She was everyone’s biggest cheerleader, encourager, party planner, text message therapist, and so much more. To this end, she loved her sister Sierra and brother Jamal with all her heart.
