I am just so sad to lose such a wonderful person. I feel honored and privileged to have known what a truly beautiful person Jackie was inside and out. My mother, Jackie and I worked together closely as the officers for the St. Cloud Area Farmers Market for many years. Jackie was such an advocate for the entire St. Cloud community. I miss you Jackie. You made me a better leader, a truer friend and a kinder citizen. I will be forever grateful.
