Sorry to hear about the loss of our daughter. My office partners and I knew Jackie when she worked at our dialysis unit in Fort Worth a few years back and we missed her greatly when she transferred to Dallas. We knew than, as we still know today, we had loss a great nurse. Jackie was passionate about her work and touched many of us in her unique and special way. Patients and clinic staff lover her. We are sadden greatly by her unexpected illness and her recent passing. Jackie will remain always in my thoughts and prayers. In your time of sorry take comfort in knowing your daughter now rests in the Heavenly kingdom with our Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ.

Dear Colleen, Laura, & Annie,

We are so saddened to hear about your mom's death. Thoughts of your mom brought back fond memories of your school days at St. Rita's, especially those competitive basketball/volleyball games! Jackie was always willing to help out in the concession stand; she was so fun to be around and was very proud of her girls. Our thoughts are with you and hopes that your time and faith will heal your broken hearts.

With love,
Cindy and Amanda Jung

Mrs. Dorris, I was saddened to hear that Jackie had passed away. Jackie was such a good friend to me when I began my years at Nolan. I remember spending the night at your house several times. Your family always made me feel welcomed. She will always be thought of by me with fond memories.May God provide comfort to you and your family during this time and for the days to come.

My deepest sympathies to Jackie's entire family. What a shock it was to hear this news. Jackie and I went back all the way to St. Rita's for middle school and through Nolan. Many fun times were spent growing up on the East side. She was a kind & sweet person who always had a smile on her face. My thoughts & prayers are with you daily.

Our deepest sympathy to the Blacknall family. Jackie was a life saver to me and my family when my kidney failed and I had to go on dialysis. I don't think I would have done as well as I have had she not been there. She was truly a special lady.

Muriel, I really don't know how to begin to say how sad I am to hear of Jackie's passing. We were such good freinds @ NCHS and roommates our first semester of college. I have so many good memories tucked away. Jackie was always kind and had a great outlook on life. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
