Jackie was a very unique lady; very kind, gentle and so unassuming. It was always a very easy encounter being around Jackie, she was just so wonderfully genuine.
I knew Jackie through her son, Charlie, who is so much like his Mom. What a wonderful legacy to be able to pass on that kind of character.
Her passing is a profound loss to her family, her friends and to this world.
