Thanks Doug, and yes she is missed.
Jacque was a great friend my family and best friends with my mom. Countless times when I would stop to see my mom, Jaque would be there reminiscing old times and talking about religion and church. She was a great woman and will be sorely missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to Jacques Family and friends. ❤️
I often think of what the 2 of them accomplished together
Heaven will never be the same with both of them together
