Jacqueline Kovach Hagedorn

Jacqueline Kovach Hagedorn, a long-time resident of South Bend, Indiana, passed away on March 27, 2024, at the age of 67. Born on February 19, 1957, also in South Bend, she was a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and sister who lived a life filled with love and dedication to her family and work.

Jacqueline spent 19 fruitful years maintaining the vibrancy and function of Club Fever, where her hard work and commitment made her a well-respected member of the community. Her reliability and friendly nature will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing and working with her.

In her personal life, she was the cornerstone of her family. Sadly preceded in death by her husband, Thomas Hagedorn; parents, Charles and Christine Kovach; and brother, Kevin Kovach, Jacqueline's spirit is carried on through her children: Heather (Jason) Perez, Justin (Amanda Muncie) Hagedorn, and Thomas (Taryn) Hagedorn. Her ten grandchildren and one great-grandchild, who brought her immeasurable joy, will cherish and honor her extraordinary example of strength and love.

She leaves behind her devoted sisters, Christine Kovach and Kenna Leader, and brothers, Keith Kovach and Charles Kovach. Jacqueline's legacy will continue to bloom in the hearts of all who loved her as they keep her memory alive in their thoughts and deeds.
