Dear Jackie, We are so proud of all your hard work and accomplishments. Your beauty and spirit is bright both inside and out. And now you are a Duke Graduate. Follow your dreams and always know that we love you! Congratulations!! Mom and Dad John, if it were possible for parents to create a child as you would have them, we would not have aimed high enough. You’ve exceeded our expectations. You’re a rare combination of ambition and kind heartedness, hard-working and fun-loving, determined and accepting, curious and confident. If God had asked us what we want in a child, we would have said “a loving, healthy, and intelligent son.” God granted us all that and so much more. You’re a good friend, a man who leaves everyone he touches better off, and a tremendous son who we love so much. We are grateful for the gifts God gave you and pleased that you have chosen to use them well. We are so proud of the man you have become. Love, Mom and Dad
