Carol Vuoso says
Dear Harold and family, I was so very sorry to hear of the passing of the kindest person I ever knew. Jackie’s heart was made of pure gold. I will forever be indebted to her. Because of her I was able to live out my dream to be a teacher. I will not forget the great times we had at Federation of Catholic School Parents. Life is short and sometimes things get in the way of times that should have or could have been spent together. I know we will meet again in eternity. With much sympathy. Carol Vuoso and Jerry.
