When I think about Honey I am reminded of such fond memories of summers visiting her. The smell of her famous french toast, her beautiful sunroom, evenings spent trying to catch frogs outside her kitchen and having so much fun with her riding the kick’n go around the neighborhood. I will hold the memories Honey and I shared together close to my heart. She brought a lot of light into my life and will be missed by many.
I will always hold the memory of Honey cooking her famous french toast, her contagious laugh, her quilts, her beautiful red hair, and all the fun we would have playing on the kick and go. I am so thankful for her and all of the good memories we shared. I remember Honey loving Winnie-the-Pooh and every time I see Winnie I will always think of her. Forever grateful and thankful that you were my Honey.
My deepest sympathy for your loss. Prayers for Jackie and for all her family and friends.
There are two things I will always remember about Jackie:
1). Her quick wit. She was hilarious and always cracked me up when we were in school.
2). Her amazing creativity. She was a wonderful decorator. She wallpapered her ceiling when she was very young and it was beautiful. Who would have ever thought of doing that but Jackie?
I have thought about her so many times over the years and am so glad I saw her and visited with her at one of the class reunions.
