I'm sorry for your loss, and I know it's been a while, but Jackie was an awesome person, me her and Alex, hung out at the nickelback concert, and I remeber, all she wanted to do was "crowd surf" she was so funny, because we were on the lawn. Your family is truly in my prayers. My father just recently passed of cancer, but when I found out about it I told him to tell Jackie and Alex I miss them.

To You and Your Family - Words cannot express the sorrow that I have for you and yours. Please accept this poem below, which is an expression of my sympathy to your family -

Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there
I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am the gentle Autumn rain
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds
In circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there
I did not die

Sincerely, Carolyn McKie

I can still picture Jackie singing in the grade school chorus with a big smile on her face. I was so sorry to read about what happened.

i didn't have the privilege of knowing jackie or the mchugh family but as a fellow glenmont resident i just want to offer my sincerest condolences. it is tragic to lose two amazing people at such a young age but i'm sure they are both still together, in a far better place than we could even imagine.

BERNIE, kIM AND FAMILY;
My deepest sympathy for your great loss. Jackie touched many people in her short 16 years, a wonderful person. Her curly hair was her trade mark, just like her Aunt Carol's. I feel very honored to think I knew her and will always keep her in my prayers.

November 28, 2007

Dear Mchugh Family:
I am so sorry for your great loss. I never met Jackie but from what I have read she was an amazing you lady and that anyone who met her,no matter how short or long the interaction, came away a better person from having known her.

You are in my prayers. God got the best angel on earth

Dear McHugh Family:
I do not know any of you but I wanted you all to know that I was deeply touched by your loss and as I've sat here reading these entries, I have cried buckets of tears. It sounds like your daughter led a BEAUTIFUL life and was loved by many, many people. I hope that this, accompanied by many happy memories of the time you had with her helps you through this most difficult time. My grandmother told me before she passed away, never to have any regrets and to always be thankful for what we had together. I hope God grants you the strength to do the same. My thoughts and prayers will be with you, and Alex's family as well, through these difficult times ahead. God bless you all, and I know your daughter is smiling down on you from heaven, with magnificent wings attached to each side of her.

Tom Larsen

November 27, 2007

Jackie was an amazing person, and I know I'll never forget her. There are so many great memories I have of her, especially when we were younger. Kickball games with the Chrisken Crew, stupid games of hanson, watching Spongebob, going on the swingset, going to my house for oreos and apples, random conversations on the bus, her crazy hairstyles (especially the fro)... the list just goes on and on. They're memories I'll keep with me forever.

Kim, Bernie, Brendan, Heather... I'm so sorry about this loss. I know it's really hard for you, as it is for all of us that knew her and loved her. I really wish I could've been home to be there for you guys. I've been thinking about Jackie and about all of you constantly for the past few days. I've been praying for you every night and I'll continue to do so.

Stay strong.
Love,
Tom

I don't understand...Where did you go? I mean come on i was just sitting next to you in class before break...I kept calling your phone to see if I could leave you a message but there were too many messages from people to do so I guess this is the only way that I could speak to you...Or at least tell you how I feel, but it isnt all about me..I hope your feeling ok because this is probably a new experience for you...Everyone misses you and loves you and hopes that we will one day get to see you again...

Kimmy & Bernie,

There are no words to express my sorrow. My prayers are with your entire family in this tragic loss. I know both of you are strong and this too will pass. God sure does have a way with helping you thru this, just ask and he will be there to help.

You probably don't remember me, but I worked at the Thruway when you were upstairs with RoseAnn. Time does have a way of passing and there are many of us out here who are praying for strength for you all. God Bless

Kim, Bernie and family,
We wanted tell you how very, very sorry we are...we hope the prayers and fond remembrances of the entire Bethlehem community will help you get through this. Jackie was a wonderful and spirited girl! It was evident from the time she was a little girl. My fondest memory is that of Jackie playing Little League...her blonde curls sticking out from under her ball cap. I admired the way she gave our boys a run for their money...usually hitting that ball farther than any of them!!!! She was a pleasure to know and a gem in "Kindergarten religion" way-back-when at St. Thomas.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you all at this very difficult time.
Fondly, Colleen, Joe & Mike Bonacci

I'm so sorry. I can't beleive shes gone. I wrote this poem for Jackie and Alex.We all miss them both.


Taken

There were moments when you made us smile,
But you were taken away.
We all laughed and gigled for a while,
But you were taken away.

You had so much to look forward to,
But you were taken away.
So many people who cared about you,
But you were taken away.

Your family and freinds were always beside you,
But you were taken away.
When we needed help you knew what to do,
But you were taken away.

Today we cried, and cried , and cried,
Because you were taken away.
We miss you both and the next time we'll see you,
Is when were all taken away.

Jackie was such an amazing girl. I didn't know her that well, and I'm now saddened by this. I was in the same 1/2/3 classroom with her when I was in first grade. She was always so funny and made everyone smile. I'd see her in the halls all the time and she was greatly loved here.

Im so sorry for her loss, it seems so sudden. She was such a great girl and so kind to so many people. Her loss leaves a big part of Bethlehem empty. She will be missed greatly and we will never forget her.

Rest in Peace Jackie <3

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. Our deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

I know everybody worked very hard for Jackie She will truly be missed...Donna and I are very saddended with your loss.

Jackie was my best friend for a good 3 years. Recently our friendship kind of faded away but it was still there. I knew if I needed her, she'd come to my rescue no matter what. Due to our work schedules, we never saw eachother. I loved her like a sister. She was one of the most amazing girls I have ever met in my life. If I could go back, I would have spent so much more time with her. As of right now, I still can't believe it. Jackie & I had the greatest times. We'd always come up with some clever thing to do, and did most of everything together. When I had any problems with my boyfriend, she'd jump right in to make sure I was okay. She always made me laugh no matter what. & She did that with everyone, no matter who you were and what your mood was, she'd do something to atleast make you crack a smile. She was a great kid. I was always with Jackie in school. We went to the Main Office everyday last year to visit the secretaries, and they all loved her. She was so much fun. I'm gunna miss how funny she was, her opinions on everything, and just her presence. I'm gunna miss her so much.

I can't even begin to say how sorry I am for her parents, brother, and sister. I can't imagine what you're going through. I am so incredibly sorry for your loss.
