She enjoyed using her computer for keeping track of everything. Her granddaughter Sara followed in her footsteps and is now an RN, an accomplishment Jackie was especially proud of. Jeramy also spent many Sundays having dinner with “Grams”.

Also to Jeffery Martinez who made sure the snow was always removed so Jackie could get her car out and remain independent in the wintertime.
