My heart is broken when I heard the news of Jackie. She was a dear friend of mine for many years in Ludington, Mi. My heart goes out to her family. She will be sadly missed. I would like to send a card to the family.
She was my neighbor. She was a very sweet and kindhearted person. This is so very sad. Sending my deepest heartfelt sympathy out to her family. I will miss her.
So heartbreaking, especially being it was a family member who found the body.
