1. Always studious
2. I could never out type her
3. Tried time after time to burn her on the dance floor; famous words after dancing "is that all you still got"
4. When I look at American Idol, I see Jackie performing and making it to the finals
5. I heard her sing after school, with Roberta Flack @ Browne Jr. High School. Once you heard her, you knew she had that gifted talent
6. Always getting a standing ovation during Eastern High School Talent Shows
7. Singing with classmate Tony Brown at a Class Reunion Program, "Hey Jackie, you still got God's Gift, Baby".
8. Saw her in passing, with the DLocks hairstyle, "Hey, Jackie, that hairstyle works for you. Go on player."
9. In passing, Hey Jack, what's up. "I'm teaching music in the DC public school system. You should stop by, you may finally learn how to sing and hold a high note for over 5 seconds."
10. Learned of her sickness, felt very sad and concerned
11. In learning of her crossing over, God has another Angel to the sing the songs of Zion
12. Thank you family for molding, shaping and guiding this gifted talent, "On Loaned from God."
