This is early -- AJ didn't leave us until May -- 2008 (16 years ago) but I think about her all the time and my memory (as I zoom towards 70) is frightful. There are just some losses you never, ever get over. My dad was one, Aunt Jackie was another. God bless all our faithful departed -- may light perpetual continue to shine on them. Robert H. Mace Jr., nephew. March 4, 2024.

I still think of her every day. She was the kindest person ever. Loved all of her family ferociously. She is sorely missed. Linda Dedrick, niece. and daughter of Lillian Mace. May 16, 2023.

I have known Jackie since I was a little girl; we lived next door to her in Philadelphia (many yrs ago); she was like an Aunt to me & my siblings. She wil be missed very much.

Aunt Jackie...A lovely woman who truely made this world a better place. We will miss you. I hope to see you again in heaven some day.

Aunt Jackie - How I will miss your wit and your huge, generous heart. You were my best friend when I was a troubled teen--and I 'll never forget our times together. I am truly one of your adopted children. Keep a seat for me at the Blackjack table in heaven.

Jackie lived next door to us in Northeast Philly. She was like an aunt to my brothers and sisters. She was a good friend to my parents.I will always remeber Jackie gave us hot chocolate and candy ribbons when we shoveled the snow for her. She will be missed.

We will miss you Aunt Jackie.........Joe Fairo, Justine Deal and Luke

Aunt Jackie was my late father's best friend and like a second mother to me. We now have another Saint in Heaven, whose heart was carved from pure love. As much as we, her family, loved her, she loved us even more. We were all so precious to her. And now she will be forever precious in our hearts.
