Condolences
Michael and family, I was sorry to hear of the loss of your mother Jackie. I had known Jackie since kindergarten when I got to be her friend at recess time. She continued to be an important part of my life meeting her at family get together and hearing about you, her family and work. She was my third cousin and I was always grateful to have an extended family. My last plan was to visit Lebanon with her and was sad when our plans fell through in 2018. She attended my vow renewals in 2019 and told me of her appreciation for her companion. I trust that those people closer to her held her close in her last days. I will miss her. We lost a beautiful person, a true giver.

Jackie,
Your departure leaves an aching void in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know you. You were more than a colleague at AIDS Support Chatham-Kent; you were a guiding light, a source of unwavering kindness, and a true friend. Your impact on my life, both personally and professionally, is immeasurable.
I'll always cherish the memory of our trip to Toronto, where your playful spirit and infectious laughter made the journey unforgettable. Your ability to make everyone feel valued and important, from colleagues to clients, was a testament to your extraordinary character.
Your passion for social work was inspiring, and your dedication to helping others was truly remarkable. You touched countless lives with your compassion, empathy, and unwavering support. Your legacy will continue to live on through the countless individuals you helped and the lasting impact you made on our community.
As you embark on your next chapter, may you find the peace and rest you so richly deserve. Your love for Betty Boop, a reflection of your vibrant personality, will always bring a smile to our faces. Farewell, dear Jackie, until we meet again.
With love and gratitude,
Steve

My deepest condolences to Jackie's family. I am so sorry for your loss. I shared many wonderful times with Jackie during our teens and 20's. So many extremely precious summers memories. I admired Jackie in many ways. She always had great grit and spunk! I know she brought this energy to everything she did in life. I also fondly remember her love of fashion -alway looking polished. And her sharp wit ~ so many laughs.
Sending my love to you Jackie♡🕊

I was saddened to hear of Jackie's passing and offer my condolences to her family and those close to her. While we had lost touch over decades and geography, I remember her well from the Erieau summers of my youth when I was still at home or visiting, and subsequently when we both lived in London for a time. She was a remarkable woman with a truckload of courage and determination. She was so proud of and committed to her son Gabe whom I met only once briefly, an extraordinary young man at the time. Jackie was a fierce advocate for those with disabilities and lived brightly with confidence and heroism. She excelled in her profession as a social worker and torch bearer. With her sparkling personality she levelled the playing field for many.

Jackie was a really awesome and funny person. She had such a big heart and cared genuinely for other people dealing with life issues. I was saddened to hear she was no longer with us. Jackie had her own challenges but just pushed onward and upward. Micheal she cherished you I am sorry for your families loss.
