Though she’d recently been given a “clean bill of health where cancer was concerned,” said daughter Jackie Gingrich Cushman, Jacqueline May Battley Gingrich died Wednesday in Atlanta from complications of multiple health issues. The longtime resident of Carrollton was 77. A funeral is scheduled for 11 a.m. Saturday at First Baptist Church, Carrollton, with burial to follow. Almon Funeral Home and Chapel, Carrollton, is in charge of arrangements. Famous for her privacy, Gingrich’s name became public fodder in the late-‘70s, toward the end of her marriage to Newt Gingrich. Jackie Gingrich rarely discussed their marriage, but questions swirled around the divorce even as recently as 2012 during Newt Gingrich’s presidential bid. The two met in Columbus at Baker High School, where she was his geometry teacher. Seven years his senior, they married in 1962. The couple had two daughters but divorced in 1980, two years after he won a seat in the U.S. House. Cushman wrote a column in 2011 that said her parents’ divorce had “been hard and painful for all involved, but life continued.” She Copyright ©mudmind.pages.dev 2025 |
