Jackie was the best. She had a great bubbly personality. When I worked at the pub in Long Grove we would always joke about fun things. She will be missed by many of her friends. I loved her smile. Always a friendly greeting and laughter we enjoyed. Rest In Peace, my sweet friend. God bless your family and friends with love, strength, courage, and a great memory that will live on forever. She now has her angel wings. Fly with the angels to God's heavenly garden of peace and joy. ❤ you Jackie and your family. Hugs. Rose Ewoldt
