Lets go to Malad street in Boise idaho Jackie was a dear friend to all of us. Our friendship goes way back to our kids being small. Rick and Roy were friends and feared by all. Christi was cool and beautiful. Ann was my favorite friend. Scotti was their little white dog. Ginger was my little black dog. Jackie would give Ann and I a bowl of chocolate chips and we would sit outside and enjoy the whole bowl. For Anns' birthday she made these amazing paper mache dolls that we got to paint and make pretty Best bday ever. Jackie was always smiling and welcoming We loved the time when mom was unexpectantly stuck at the hospital in Portland.. Jackie and Mel drove to her right away and brought her home to spend the night. When mom and I had to go back again a second time for a procedure for dad, they were there to pick us up, feed us, and house us. We so appreciated them then and appreciate them now. They would always come visit mom and dad when they came to boise. Always such
I didn’t meet Jackie until the last few years of her life, but the memories and thoughts that she shared with me are such a wonderful example of the things that matter most. We would go on walks, and Jackie would spend all her time pointing out the beauty of the world around us. She would say “Heavenly Father must’ve had so much fun Creating the world.“ She would point out the beautiful things that people had created and occasionally she would say something like “oh I don’t like the color combination on that house,” and then good-naturedly add, “But, nobody asked me.“ She would talk about how much she loved her husband, and how wonderful it was being a mother to her sweet children. She would always tell me that she could just tell that I was such a good mother. She would complement me , every time I saw her. I felt uplifted and encouraged and happier every time I spend a few minutes with Jackie. I hope that I can be a little bit more like her every day.
Jackie was one of the first people we met when we moved into the Gladstone ward. She was always so kind and sweet to our family. She showed so much love to each of my children and to Jay and I. We felt like family to her. She was a perfect example of Christ love for each of us and it radiated in her spirit. So thankful for knowing Jackie and the example she has always been to me. Her sweet and gentle spirit will be missed here on earth but I am sure she is dancing and singing in heaven with the best.
Jackie was an angel on earth! Her goodness just glowed from her. I never heard her say a single bad word about anyone. She always saw only the good in others. She was courageous in sharing the gospel with anyone she met. I loved when she would share with us of an experience she had had during the week. Jackie was such a role model to us all of what a faithful daughter of God should be. I am grateful to have known her and can visualize the joyous reunion she had with her beloved Mel.
My sincere condolences to the family.

Aunt Jackie influenced my life in many ways even though I did not know her well.
My memories are few but a couple I dod want to share.
Uncle Mel and Aunt Jackie helped me financially on my lds mission 25 years ago. This showed me what giving is all about. I was a young 19 year old and for Aunt Jackie to contribute really helped me financially but it truly had a profound impact on my willingness to share and give to those in need. I had only seen Aunt Jackie a handful of times in my life and for her to give so willingly and without being asked truly has blessed my life.
Secondly she always made you feel loved when you were in her presence. She treated my wife and our young daughter like we were her own the last time I saw Aunt Jackie 15 years ago. I will never forget that. We felt loved and appreciated. She treated my wife whom she hadn't met until that day with the love that can only come from a true disciple of Christ.
She is loved and will be missed
