Heather Jakacki Obituary

My boyfriend Brad and I got to know Heather as Sunday morning regulars at the Classic 57 Diner, and what a pleasure it was! I can still see her motioning us to her section when we came in the door with that wonderful smile of hers. She always made us feel as if we were her special customers, and as we could hear her talk to other customers-she made everyone feel the same way. We are very sorry we did not hear of her passing until recently, as we would have very much liked to pay our respects to such a special lady in person at her services. The obituary write-up captured her perfectly..."beautiful soul, a heart of gold and a contagious smile". We are so very sorry to all her family and loved ones for their loss. In life one gets to know a few very special people who impact them, make them want to be a better person and who will be remembered always...that was Heather.

I wanted to express how terribly sad I am that Heather lost her fight. But what a fighter she was. She will forever be remembered for her smile, spirit, and laughter. She was the best mother and wife and friend to everyone. Though Heather’s life was much too short, she lives it right. I’ve been looking at all the pictures Pam has been posting and it’s made me realize I need to make sure I leave my family with the good memories as well. I started a new job and had to work the day of the calling hours. I am sorry I couldn’t be there in person to show you all my condolences. I love you Heather!

She was a great friend of mine for a majority of my life. She always treated people with kindness and warmth. She will be greatly missed by everyone that knew her.

So sorry for the families affected by this tragedy. She was such a wonderful, caring, and passionate person to know. A woman who truly loved her family. She will be greatly missed.

So sorry for the loss of such a beautiful person, inside and out. Rest in peace.

Spread your wings now

I can't image my life if I hadn't meant Heather when I did (long after school). she showed us what strong was, her soul was amazing. Sending all our love and support to her family.

Josh, Coni, Colton and Families ~
Please feel our love, support, and encouragement in the hug that attaches to this message. As her 5th grade teacher, our classroom was filled with her beautiful soul, heart of gold, and that contagious smile. Your summary is so perfect! She always brought such fun and caring energy to all that she did. No matter the situation, you could count on her smile and vibrancy. She was a gift and a blessing to me and so many others! Her smile now takes a spot in each of our hearts.

Josh, You and your family have my deepest sympathy.
