Dear family and friends of Jackie,
I am so saddened to hear of Jackie’s passing. I haven’t seen Jackie for a great many years but reading his beautiful obituary made me sad that I lost touch with family over the years. I remember Jackie as being kind and friendly and a hard worker. I trust that he is with his heavenly family and at peace. May his loved ones find comfort in treasured memories during this difficult time. You have been in my thoughts and prayers, Debbie (Mousseau) Power
