We will miss our Jackie who was certainly a "Bright" light that was always present at the 12 Noon Mass at St. Jerome Catholic Church. We love you and will continue to pray our Rosary each Sunday for you and know that you are with us spiritually. Love and prayers always, Frank and Marguerite Allario
