"Aunt" Jackie was only 4 1/2 years older than myself and that small difference became a continuing source of amusement between us, whenever our families visited. Being a current 24/7 caregiver for my own Mom for the past 5 years, has kept me from keeping in touch with a lot of family members, including you too - Aunt Jackie - (I know - "don't call me Aunt Jackie"). Please give your Mom and warm hug from me too. And here's a photo of my "Aunt" Jackie - her mother standing - and myself seated.

Dear Arlyn and family.
I only met y'all about 11 yrs ago. I was so lucky that I found my cousin "Jackie" Carroll and her family On two trips down to SC she & I enjoyed hunting down Carrolls in the various cemeteries around Rock Hill and York. She became interested in her Carroll genealogy and I shared lots of things with her. Jackie was one of the most gracious and delightful of southern ladies. She made my trips there a lasting memory. i still drink sweet tea with a little Southern Comfort in memory of my time with her. I will miss her dearly.
