Mr. Jackie Rudisail, age 65, of Etowah, North Carolina, passed away peacefully on Thursday, February 24, 2022, at Accordius Health at Asheville. A native of Henderson County, North Carolina, born December 10, 1956, he was the son of the late Howard “Jack” Rudisail and Ada Dalton Rudisail.

Jackie had a passion for genealogy and loved attending family reunions. He was a member of the Krewe of Centaur in Shreveport, Louisiana.

He stayed connected to his many friends with letters and cards. Jackie was a graduate of Appalachian State University and attended Etowah Baptist Church.

Jackie is survived by his sister, Phyllis FitzSimons (Dunkin); niece, Allison Finlay (Kevin); nephew, Patrick FitzSimons (Sarah); two great-nieces, Clara Finlay, and Ada FitzSimons; and one great-nephew, Declan Finlay.

No services are planned at this time.
