My sincerest condolences to you, Al, whom I did not have the opportunity to meet; to my cousin, Barry; and to Jacqui's children. Jacqui was a loving cousin, giving good advice to me as we grew up in Freeport. Jacqui and my mother had a special kinship, both having artistic gifts. I know my mother was very proud of Jacqui's accomplishments. Hopefully they are now sharing memories together.##imported-begin##Linda Eichmeier De Grand##imported-end##
To my darling mother,
It's been three weeks since you left us and I still can't believe you are gone. I think of a dozen things a day that I want to remember to tell you the next time we talk, and then it hits me.....
I miss you so much.
Love always,
your daughter##imported-begin##daughter##imported-end##
I was a classmate of Jackie in High
School and always felt she was one of the most pretty and friendliest gals in our class. I didn't know that she had such honors in her artistic field because I sort of lost contact with most of my classmates.
You can be proud of her artistic talent and honors but especially for the values she instilled in her family.
I did see her at a couple of our reunions but I wasn't at the last one.
I hope your memories will help you through the rough days.##imported-begin##Kitty Rockey Baldwin##imported-end##
We were shocked at Jackie's passing. We were high school friends, and knew her children as babies. She assounced her marriage to my husband and I in our car on the way to graduation. I will remember her always.

It is with deep sadness that I received the news of Jackie's passing. We were very good friends in high school, and a person that I have always loved and admired.
I pray that God will comfort your family and that I will see you again 'up there'. Connie Myers Steffen Vancouver, WA.##imported-begin##Connie Myers Steffen##imported-end##
Deat Jacqulyn, I was so happy to have visited with you last September at our 55th reunion. You were as friendly and lovely as ever. I'm sorry your family will be without your support but I know you instilled in them strength and courage and THEY will not forget you. May you be in peace.

I am very sadded by the passing of Jackie. She and I were 'best friends' in hgh school in Freeport, and we even shared the same boyfriend. She was always a sweet, smiling, fun loving person and I will miss her e-mails that we shared during the past year.
My sympathy to her beloved children, her husband, and her many friends.

Jackie will be remembered with great fondness. We shared 3 decades of growth and change in ourselves and our beloved South Florida design community. She was always a gracious, giving person, with a smile and a kind word for everyone. I didn't even know Jackie was ill. She will be missed.

Dear Mike, Mark, Michelle, Matt and Gregg and beloved husband Al and Jackie's extended family: I am so sorry to hear of Jackie's passing and feel this will be a great loss for us all. She was a wonderful sister-in-law and our families enjoyed many good times together when we were all living in the Freeport, IL area. I am sorry that I did not keep in touch but wanted to express my sorrow in her passing to the families. She will be missed.##imported-begin##Barbara Groves##imported-end##
