"Jackie"

One year has passed so quickly since your departure to be with God. He knew you were a very special person who was intelligent, caring and a loveable wife, mother, mother in law and an awesome grandmother of two.

We think of you daily and with the
holidays closing in you will be missed even more. Christmas season was
always a very special time for you. Gifts, tasty foods you made plus
contacts with many of your close friends and relatives via phone and cards kept you busy and happy.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Jackie. We love you very much and miss you tremendously. It's not the same without you here joining us for the holidays.
