Jackie went to his Heavenly home on February 9, 2022. He was born on Monday, October 27, 1947 in Denton, Texas, the youngest of Doris Mae Garrett Standifer and Marvin Lee Standifer. He lived all of his life in Krum, Texas.

He attended Krum Schools and graduated from Krum High School in 1967. He also attended Cooke County Junior College (NCTC), and earned an Associate's Degree. He loved all sports and he played four years on the Krum High School Basketball team and in 1967, he played on the Krum team that won second place in the State Tournament in Austin, Texas, where he had a record of 14 rebounds. He continued to be a fan of the Krum Bobcat teams and attended as many games as possible.

He never married, nor had any children. He felt that since he was the youngest of his siblings that it was his duty to take care of our mother and no one could convince him otherwise. He took care of her until she passed away in December of 2005. He had many friends and loved visiting with everyone at the coffee shops and other meeting places in Krum.
