Dear Sweet Jackie and Your Entire Family,
We so enjoyed being able to watch the beautiful video picture tribute that was so lovingly created. With the miles that separate us, what a wonderful way to be able to share in celebrating your moms life with you. We have many fond memories of your mom as she and your dad visited the area and the wonderful stories that you have shared expressing how precious your mother and father are to you. Your love for your mother runs deep and we know without a doubt that you will greatly miss her physical presence in your lives. With each new day, may you hold close in your hearts the precious memories that have been created together over the years. Wish we could be there with you at this time. Thinking of you and praying for you all from a distance.
Love and Hugs!
Jack and Nancy
