Resident Jacquie Dozier dies at 89

Jacquie Dozier passed away on Dec. 23, 2024.

She was born on Jan. 3, 1935.

"About the artist, Jacquie Dozier," her family wrote. Jacquie was a former teacher and headmistress of a Christian school for language disabilities in California. Taking a job on a sailboat as a nanny, she came to Alaska. She arrived in Wrangell around Mother's Day in 1995.

She fell in love with the friendliness of the people and the warmth of the town. Often she would be seen with her little white Westie, wandering about the trails and beaches, picking up rocks, shells and driftwood.

She enjoyed these many years spent in Wrangell and has no desire to be anywhere else.
