Shelby High Classmates have many fond memories of Jackie. He was always such a fine person, and so very smart. As one of his high school classmates I have fond memories of him, his character, his intelligence, his kindness, and his athletic ability on the SHS football field. He will be remembered fondly by his classmates. My condolences to his family.
