She was my dear aunt, my godmother, and my confidante. I used to love the times we visited together. As a child I would listen to the rich stories that she and my mom would tell over lunch or an iced tea.
She loved her family so dearly. She was so very proud of her children and their accomplishments. I recall how excited she was to be a grandmother and off-the-charts elated to learn she would be a great grandmother.
We spent many hours on the phone in most recent years, laughing, crying, and simply sharing our life experiences.
Each time I spent with her was precious to me. I will remember her laugh, her ambition, and her will to remain independent until her time came.
You will always be in my heart, Aunt Jackie.
Aunt Jackie was everyone’s favorite aunt, she made you feel so special, she listened and was always ready to give you a hug. Her infectious laugh will always be forever with me.
Your chair on my back patio will always be ready for your next visit.
I love you and know you are now at peace and home with Uncle Jack.
I worked at Lowes with Jackie for many years. We were very close friends and shared many stories. She with me and vise versa.
I always looked forward to seeing her smiling face everyday she came in.
Heaven has gained a true angel
Loved my aunt Jackie’s laughter and her sweet personality she adored my uncle Jack together they where like Lucy and Ricky. See you soon.
I worked with Jackie at Lowes and she was the sweetest lady. She even came to my wedding and we had so many good talks. She will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her.
We will miss our Aunt Jackie’s weekly phone conversations. We laughed at life, ourselves and just because it was a good day to talk. We shared so many stories… oh how she loved her family! The angels are so lucky! We will both miss her dearly…
Sue, Bill and family,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. We know there is nothing we can say to make this any better, but wanted you to know you all are in our thoughts and prayers.
Kevin and Sandi Redhage
