Dear Marais and Peter, John, Laura and family,
Please accept our deepest sympathy and prayers on the loss of your Mother.
Jackie shined bright as a true friend to those of us so blessed to know her.
She was generous, supportive , funny, but most of all Jackie was kind .
I will miss her terribly.
She was also a great teacher and advocate helping others.
She loved her Grandchildren - such great kids .
May her memory be a blessing to you all in time .
I´m so sorry for your loss .

My mom, Josie Caruso was so lucky to have Jacki in her life. Jacki visited her at her home and later in the nursing home every week. Her kindness and friendship meant so much to my mom and most of all, to me.
