Jamie, it was a pleasure to work for you back in onld Fab 1 Litho. I remember the wonderful brunches when we had to work Sundays of holiday weeks. You taught me that being a female engineer did not preclude having fun nor having joy in one's heart. You will always be remembered.

God Bless You Jamie! You will truly be missed. I have such great memories of working for you all those years at Intel. You always had a smile on your face. I loved hearing about all of your adventures/travels of climbing mountains afar. I still wear the Lapis Necklace you brought home for me from one of your trips - I will cherish it always!

I will miss you! You will always be in my prayers!
