Jacqueline Kepros
Jacqueline Kepros
Cedar Rapids
Jacqueline Kepros passed away peacefully at St. Luke’s Hospital in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Sunday, June 1, 2025, after a long battle with lung disease. No services will be held. Murdoch-Linwood Funeral Home & Cremation Service, Cedar Rapids, assisted the family.
She was born in Pontrefact, England to Tom and Betty (Topham) Robinson. Jackie moved to Cornwall, England where she fell in love with a U.S. Marine from Cedar Rapids-where they eventually landed. Jackie was a voracious reader and could often be found on the back patio of their home with her iPad in hand devouring a good book. She loved the ocean in Cornwall and time spent on the Mississippi River in Iowa. Jackie had an amazing green thumb and loved to garden or just appreciate nature. She adored spending time with her husband Keven listening to music, cooking together or just sitting outside.
Jackie is survived by her husband, Keven; son, Thomas; sister, Joyce; brother, Tom; and two beautiful cats, Luca, and Cocoa.
