Jackie gathered people from every walk of life. She made special effort to make sure all felt and knew that they were loved and valuable. There was always room at her table for whomever entered her home.  She was happiest when she was surrounded by those she loved. As each departed, she would often ask, “What’s your hurry?” hoping for a little more time. She is fondly remembered for her big hugs, “I love you” and “You are special.”

She is fondly remembered by the numerous individuals she served as a lifetime member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
