I will always treasure the times we spent together. You were a wonderful woman and a supportive wife and mother. The most important thing a parent can do in this life is raise a child with love and care. You may never know just how well you have succeeded in that task with Nathan. Jodi and I strive daily to raise our son with the hopes that he may one day become the caring, intelligent, compassionate young man that you have raised in Nathan. We do not get to choose when we go but I pray you rest easily knowing that when it comes to what truly matters in this life-Being the best parent and spouse you can be-you have succeeded in every way-Your brought joy to all those around you and I will always be a different (and better) person for having you in my life. I urge us all to remember Jacquie for who she was in life-One of the most amazing people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. I love you Aunt Jacquie and you will be in my heart always...

Jacquie always had a smile and carried a pleasant attitude throughout her time at Allen Press. She was missed when she left and I can't imagine what her loss means to those close to her now. May God fill some of that void with His peace and with the memories you have of her.
