Aloha no, Jackie. Can't believe you're gone! I've missed your wit and wisdom for the past couple years, but I always figured you'd be back. I guess you were serious when you said you'd never come visit me here in Hawai`i. I was thinking about you the other day ... about the time in high school (? Junior High?) when our respective mothers simultaneously banned us from hanging out together. I don't recall what we did that time to inspire that action, but I'm SO glad we ignored them! You've always been the most fun person I've ever known. I'm hoping Ken and the boys will find their way over here so we can compare notes on the amazingly awesome times we've all had with you. Enjoy your journey. You are massively missed!

Love,
Mak

Ken, Greg and Rim, I'm so very sorry for your loss. I only just learned about this today from our mutual friend Marianne. Jackie was a good friend whom I lost touch with over the years, then found again only recently. Wish we had more time to reconnect. I have some pics that I'd like to share when I can find them of you boys when you were small and my children. When I can dig them out, I'll be back in touch. Much love to your family.

You were the best Mom a son could have ever hoped to have; loving, caring, and supportive. You dedicated your life to raising my brother and I to be educated men with open hearts and open minds. And the love you showed in your marriage with our Dad sets an example of a near perfect marriage. To that end, you have achieved a level of success that far exceeds most people's dreams. I love you Momma, and I will miss you terribly!

Your son Greg
