Jackie was such a lovely kind person always smiling and full of joy. I remember her and Graham visiting the UK with my cousins for a couple of years in the late 70’s they were great times. I also remember her great cooking! Thinking of you all in the NZ branch of the Reburn family X

Graham. I was just thinking of Jackie last week and trying to find which retirement village she was in as I wanted to visit. So sad to hear that she has died. I have such beautiful memories when I was hired by Jackie at Oakwoods and worked for 8 years with Jackie at the Helm. She was like a Motherly boss and looked after all of us. Thinking of you and your family.
