I road with Aunt Jackie in the front seat as a kid. She fun and listened to me. I think we were headed towards Wyoming. She a cool lady and will always remember her that way.

Honestly, one of my most delightful memories of Jacque is the twinkle in her eyes and her laugh when something tickled her…often her own come backs! She had such a great sense of humor💝 Wonderful memories,

Jacque and I had a lot of laughs at the HyVee wine tastings in Norfolk. Even though we only saw each other once a month for a while I considered her a friend. We had fun and I bet if they have wine tastings in heaven she will be the first in line! You will be missed Jacque for sure…..

I am deeply saddened by the loss of such a dear person. Jacque and I worked together at Stockwell pharmacy for many years . Even after her retirement we continued to meet for coffee and had many heart to heart talks. I am truly going to miss her. May God bless you and your family.
