Jacqueline Hazel (Batty) Perrone

Jacqueline Hazel (Batty) Perrone, 78 of Ashland, Massachusetts passed away peacefully on Saturday, September 3, 2022. 

Jackie was born as an only child to Gilbert and Ruby Batty of Bradford, England on July 28, 1944. She immigrated from England at the age of 19 to the U.S. where she met her husband, Frank Perrone of Worcester, marrying in 1967 and settling in Holliston. In the 1970’s,  Jackie began her career in banking. While working full time and raising her family, she pursued her undergraduate and master’s degree at Lesley University, graduating with a GPA of 3.9.  She continued her successful banking career, retiring as the SVP, Director of Learning and Development for the Bank of America in 2004. She was the loving mother of Marc (Jeanine) Perrone of Cohasset and Kahron Dieter (Jeff) of Hopkinton. She was a devoted grandmother to Kevin, Morgan, Jillian, Nicholas, and Ryan. She was predeceased by her husband, Frank Perrone. 

Jackie’s first love in life was her family. They brought her joy and harmony.  Jackie’s selflessness and ability to be present, provided insight, wisdom, and helped so many to see situational clarity, self-clarity and self-love, above all else.  People found deep value in her, and sought out her advice, as it always came from a place of non-judgement and understanding. Her family and close friends fully recognize the importance of  her teachings. 

Jackie was a trusted friend, coach, and mentor to her family, friends, and to anyone she met. She befriended many, both locally, and through her worldwide adventures. She was curious to learn about all individuals, for she believed every individual holds value.  She truly understood and upheld the meaning of life.

Her family will be holding a Celebration of her Life on Sunday, November 13, 2022 at Hopkinton Country Club from 11am-2pm . In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Chestnut Hill Benevolent Association.
