A joyful person. shared my love for teapots. Great example of a caring Secular Franciscan.

She was one of the people who welcomed me into the Secular Franciscans. I remember my mother speaking fondly of her. A fellow tea drinker, she enjoyed collecting tea pots. Her Fraternity will remember her annually in November and one of us will pray especially for her throughout the year.

Jackie and I were professed together in 1992. She went on to become the treasurer of our Fraternity and was a wonderful support to me as minister of the fraternity. Even after she had her first stroke, she showed up for meetings and never complained. She was a real sister to all of us and will be missed. I loved her very much. Dixie Marshall, OFS
