Dear Bill, Janice and Denise and families,

We will hold on to the memories always of a lady who enjoyed life and loved her family. She was especially proud of her children and grandchildren. We enjoyed all of her stories of raising you gilrs in the Hawkins Homestead.

It was an adjustment for me (Rosalie) to move to Hartsville. I was used to being within walking distance to my family, stores, etc. Jackie invited me to join the weekly craft sessions and luncheons. Friendships were made as well as memories. Thankful to have had her a part of our lives.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers for strenghth and comfort during this difficult time. Keep the memories of your wife and mother close to your heart and she will always be with you.

Steve and Rosalie Mulhollen and family
(Hawkins Homestead, Hartsville, NY)

Uncle Bill, Punk and Denise,
Somehow my first message did not post just my name, so I will try again. I wanted you to know how sad I am to hear of Aunt Jackie's death. I will treasure my memories of the farm: Family reunions, riding Jinx and my summer stays. Aunt Jackie always made me feel special and welcome! I am glad that at least now she is in heaven with my mom! I love you all!

Dear Mom,
I am having a hard day today. I miss you and I love you. Punk

Sincere condolences to Uncle Bill & family. I have fond memories of Aunt Jackie, especially from the family reunions at the Hawkin's homestead in Hartsville so many years ago. More recently I enjoyed running into her and Uncle Bill while browsing flea markets and yard sales. She will be greatly missed, Joe Hall
