Jackie was a friend of our family for my entire life. I remember she used to pick me up and carry me when I used to complain of my legs being tired and no one else would pick me up. I really just did it because I was tired of walking and I knew she would pick me up. Jackie will always be remembered.

Danny and family: Jackie was one of the finest women I ever knew and I will miss her and her contagious smile. She always had a kind word and a hug for everyone. She was truly devoted to her family - what a testimony to her! Jackie and I became sisters, not just sisters-in-law and I will always treasure that. I love you all. God bless you all!

I will always remember the good times and what a sense of humor she had. A very caring woman she was. She always treated me like one of the family. I guess because I was around her so much of my childhood. Rest in Peace! You will be missed.
