Memories and Condolences
for Jacquelyn O'BRIEN
December 7, 2013
Dear Holly and Heather, as well as Todd, though I have never met him. I very recently heard of your mother's death; I am greatly saddened that this fabulous, energetic and totally charming woman is no longer among us. I totally relished her company in NY ( with her sister Janet-- what a duo as they worked the street vendors on Time Square,) as well as in Italy.
My deepest sympathies to the entire family,
Tina Eckert

Dear Holly, Heather, and Todd,
I knew your Mother for only 7 years in the Anderson Hills Woman's Club. In that short time, I treasured my time with her. She was such a delightful, compassionate woman, who had a zest for life. She bragged about her wonderful family, and I enjoyed hearing what she had to say. She always had a concern for others. My thoughts and prayers are with you, and your family members during this difficult time.

It was my honor to know Jackie though her friends in Columbus. She served the people of her District and the State of Ohio well. She alway made me laugh and I always enjoyed taking her and her traveling trio , The Speaker, and my Boss Betty Dee to the airport for they many trips. God bless you Jackie, you will always be in my memories from that time period.

Holly, I am so sorry for you, your sister and brother, and your families for the loss of your mother. I know she had to be a great woman and a great mother because you are such a wonderful person. I know how hard this is for you, I just lost my Mom last month. At least we are lucky that we had them in our lives and our children's lives as long as we did. GOD bless all of you.
