I found a saying online today that reminded of Aunt Jackie: "Nothing is so strong as gentleness, and nothing is so gentle as real strength". I have known Jackie for about half my life if not more. Even though she was our neighbor, she quickly became and remained a part of my family. Over the years, as I got older, she became a mother figure to me as well as to my youngest son. We would see and talk with her almost every day. She always cared about us and our lives and didnt hesitate to let us know how it is. She guided us, consoled us, laughed with us, and shared her life with us. I will miss our talks, our time spent being crafty and creative, our outdoor yard work adventures...well, I will just miss her. She truly was a strong, good hearted, and gentle woman. I love you, Aunt Jackie and hope you rest in peace. Our deepest sympathies to Heather and the entire family.

We were so blessed to have Jackie in our lives. I will miss our talks and the advice she gave over the years. She cared so much about our family and always asked how the boys were doing in school and their various activities. She always went out of her way to ensure the boys knew how proud she was of them. Jackie will be missed tremendously. Our deepest sympathy to Heather and Jackies entire family.
