This was such an important day for the family, friends and community of people who love Jackie so much, for all of you who believe in the power of prayer and positive thinking, who put just a few hours of your weekend aside to join us. God bless you. I would also like to thank Indian Country across the nation that did sweats on the same day and the web that had a prayer chain going around the world for Jackie. For those who couldn't make it, we appreciate your prayers wherever you were. Jackie, you are loved.
