Jackie attended Upper Darby High School in Drexel Hill, PA, where she met Julian, the love of her life. They were married for 60 years and remained high-school sweethearts.
Jackie was a mom, homemaker, and volunteer. She was fulfilled by and proud of her career choice. Her home was filled with unconditional love and laughter. One of the many ways she showed her love was through her gourmet cooking.
She gave countless hours volunteering at the Allied Arts Guild Restaurant, run by the Palo Alto Auxiliary to the Stanford Children's Hospital. She put her considerable talents to work serving as president in 1988. She also volunteered for the Children's Home Society. She was an active member of a women's philanthropic education organization (PEO) and was past president of Chapter H.E.
Throughout her life, Jackie found beauty in all things and held them in her heart to share with others. She brightened the spirits and touched the hearts of all who met her.
A memorial service will be held at St. Simon Church in Los Altos at 1 p.m. Monday, June 17, 2013.
