Dearest Dave & Family,
Words can't begin to express our grief. We have many good and heartfelt memories with Jackie and the family. She will be both missed and remembered with love and a warm smile. Love and hugs to the entire Rhinemiller family. Each of you are in our hearts.

Dave and family, hearing of Jackie’s passing was such a shock. Heartbreaking.
I will forever remember the many, many conversations we had bc she was concerned about my mom, Milly, whom she had adopted as her second mom. You & Jackie were so kind, so thoughtful and so helpful with my mom. Jackie & I shared many memories of our youth and families . She loved you and adored her kids, and later, her grandkids. She had a huge heart, was so intelligent and considerate that she improved the quality of many people in their time of need. I’m sure she’s in heaven , reunited with her parents and mine. I am so so sad for you. My heartfelt sympathy to you & your kids/ grand& her siblings.
💔🙏🙏🙏🙏Mary
