Jackie, my friend and classmate, after graduation we went our separate ways and never saw each other again. But I remember you as a sweet friend who was kind and friendly toward all. I am so saddened by your leaving this earth at what seems to your classmates as way too soon. But we will meet again for a glorious reunion one day.

To Jackie's family: Our classmates were saddened to hear this news. We share in your grief and we're praying for your comfort as you go through this time. May God's love, grace, and peace comfort you and His strength hold you up in the days, weeks, and months ahead.

In Christian love,
Sherry Allen Ferguson

To Jackie's Family ~ I was shocked and so very saddened when I learned of Jackie's passing. She and I were friends from the 1980's when she joined my Adjustment's Unit on Democrat Road. We worked the Zoo together many times, had lots of fun eating out and hitting the movies together with other IRS buddies. I can't think of anyone with a kinder heart. Jackie, I'll miss you and just knowing that you were right there over the river. RIP

Words can't express how I'm feeling, just thinking you was not coming to work today due to weather but once I heard the news it broke my heart into pieces. No matter what you were a friend and you will be missed dearly.

Love you and R.I.P.
