    Jackie sure will be missed by her Facebook friends. She was such an inspiration to all of us. Her love for God was so strong that you definately could feel his presents when you read it. Her and Jim are once again together. Many prayers and thoughts for all

    I am sending my condolences to you as I cannot extend them in person. I reconnected with Jackie two years ago after not seeing her for over fifty years. We grew up together in Atlantic, attending school, church, 4-H, and pajama parties. She knew me as “Patsy”…. She was such a joy to know and I know she will be missed,my prayers are with you and may God bless and keep you strong during your grief…..

    Janet, Colleen, and Jimmy,

    My heart is heavy for your loss. My deepest sympathy to you and your families. Although my experiences with Jackie were few, I say with strong conviction that she always had a smile on her face and welcomed us as if we were family. She truly loved being a part of the family celebrations. She has been blessed with wonderful children and grandchildren as you have been truly blessed with her. May your memories be shared with family and friends and bring you comfort and peace. My love and God’s blessings to you all.

    A kinder, sweeter, more loving person we never knew. We all are much better for having had her in our lives, though for a time not nearly long enough. Jackie dear, we shall miss you and wish you restful peace. You’ve earned it! You will be remembered always for your kindness. Thank God we knew you. We’ll miss you so.

    My children grew up with Jimmy and became very good friend thru the years. As Jackie and I did as well in being neighbors and fellow Tops Members. Jim and Jackie always had time for a chat or just a friendly smile or wave. Jackie you are at peace now and with the love of your life. You will always be remembered and missed. Fly high on those angle wings!!

    Jackie took my brother Peter and I into her home during a very low time of our families lives. We were only about 12 Years old, no hesitation. We will never forget and we love you for that. Jackie also took care of our 2 children at Cl Childcare center, could not have asked for anyone better. Janet, Colleen & Jimmie our thoughts and prayers are with you.

    What a genuine sweet person and cousin. We weren’t close in age but have been in touch the past few years. Was always amazed at her strength and stamina through the years of illness she indured. She fought a difficult battle and am so sorry it finally became too much for her. I will miss her even though I didn’t get to see her very often because of distance. Love and blessings
