I am so sorry to hear about Jackie's passing. She was a wonderful lady. I always enjoyed when Aunt Sue took me with her and Jackie was there. My thoughts and prayer's are with all of you.

Some of my favorite times were Sunday dinners. She would make sure to cook everyone's favorites- baked beans for my dad, corn for me, cantaloupe for my sister Katie, mac and cheese for my brother Andy and meat loaf for all. Then we would play cards and laugh. My grandparents both had smiles on their faces. I love you. Ginny Colleen

Some grandmothers teach you how to succeed. Some how to bake. Others how to behave. Then those that teach you how to treat others with respect. How to love your family. How to camp and travel. How to provide for your family. I was lucky enough to have my grandma Jackie. She taught all of us this and much more. No other will fill her shoes. Rest In Peace.

We are very sorry to hear about Grandma. I remember when we had French Silk Pie, a piece always went her way. She was a very elegant lady.
Our thoughts and prayer's are with you all.
