So, so sorry to hear of Jackie's passing. We met in the early 1970's. Our husbands went to high school together and were close friends. On a trip to Pinckney, Michigan for a reunion get together I met Jackie. She and I became good friends immediately and have kept in touch through the years going on trips as well as reunion get togethers. We really connected and even celebrated our birthdays together one year while on a trip. I have fond memories of our times together and will miss our visits. Jackie was such a cheerful and fun person.

I am so deeply saddened to hear this news. What an amazing person Jackie was - she had a laugh and smile that could light up the entire room. I´ll always treasure my memories of her and Joe, and the fun-filled game days at the Marhofer House. Sending my deepest sympathy to the entire family.

Jackie was so much fun and I loved her. When I was about 12 years old, I had just gotten my ears pierced and we went to the pig farm, and the dog was liking me and nibbled my new earring out. So, after that we went to Silver lake to see Jackie and she had to pierce my ear with one of her earing's. And we always had so much fun up at the cottage at Caseville, spoiling her babies and playing a lot of games. She will be truly missed.
