  7. Jackie was one of the kindest ladies that I have ever known. She was not my sister in-law but a caring person. To be honest she was like a big sister to me. Jackie was loved by many. I’ll always remember the good times we shared. She will always in my heart, and all of her family. God Bless you and rest in peace. 🙏
