We loved having the Harrells as our neighbors. Her children and my family spent many hours playing together in elementary school, and Jackie was a wonderful person to be around. My mom really enjoyed chatting with Jackie as well. I imagine there are many people who have happy memories of Jackie and the entire Harrell family.
I remember working with Jackie at Western Publishing in the 80's. She encouraged me to go to Alverno College and aim high in my worklife. Though I haven't seen her since I left Western Pub and moved to Chicago for an ongoing career in publishing, I remember her as one of the people who literally changed the path of my life. Through her encouragement and support, I went further in life than I dared to dream. She was a great person. Something told me to check recent obituaries in my home town. Perhaps it was someone who deserved to be remembered. My best wishes for her loved ones as they celebrate their beloved. Rest in Paradise.
Deepest condolences on your loss!

I went to junior high school with Jackie. I knew her and her family. I then worked with her at Western Publishing Company. She always had a smile on her face with her beautiful grey hair. Rest in peace and my deepest sympathies to the family.
