I love you Aunt Jackie. Rest In Peace.
Jackie was always the most attentive hostess when you visited her home. I will always have memories of good times while visiting. You will be missed. You are reunited with my brother Carl. Rest in peace.
Thank you, she was proud to be a Booker.

We Love and gonna miss you Aunt Jackie. May you rest in peace.❤?
Your aunt, our aunt, we’ll mourn together forever.
Condolences to the Lindsey/Booker family. I am honored and blessed to have known Jackie as a close chum in our youth and as a lifetime friend.
Thank you, Mrs. Bracey. Hope all is well with you. God bless.
Weeping my endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
I miss you already Aunt Jackie. I miss your smile, I miss your laugh, and I miss that zest for life that you had. Even in your everyday challenges and ending sickness, you always asked me how me and my family were doing. I only am comforted by knowing that you are in rest and peace and joy right now. Knowing that you and Uncle Carl are back together once again. And I pray that you have been reunited with your parents and siblings also. For we believers know that to be absent in the body is to be present with the Lord in glory.
My prayer is that my family except Jesus as their personal savior, and that they stop fighting with one another and come together in love. Time is too short to be holding on to the past. Move forward in love. Experience what peace, love and joy really feels like. Love each other and Love God!!!
Dina??❤️
Even though we couldn’t all be together during this troubling time to celebrate a life well lived, our hearts are with you Aunt Jackie. I will miss you until my dying day. May you rest in peace!
Jackie, our beloved sister-in-law, is now resting in eternal peace.
We loved our visits to Hartford with her and Carl. We have great memories of our years together. The great breakfasts and dinner celebrations. The fun conversations. Jackie was a warm, caring sister. Forever in our hearts. Kevin and Kitty
She loved being your hostess, thanks for those memories.
Death is never an easy thing to deal with, whether it is planned or sudden. I know how much dad loved you and how much you loved him and our family. I am so thankful that me and my children, and grandchildren had the opportunity to spend time with you and to build lasting memories of you and my father together. Rest in peace Ms. Jacqui, as the kids would call you.
Loving thoughts, thanks Adele.
