Jackie-Czeslaw Longo died peacefully with her loved ones at her side May 9th. Jackie was born in Enfield, England; she entered the U.S. With her mom, dad and two older sisters. The family settled in Long Branch, growing to include ten children. Jackie loved children, music, animals, her friends & family, puzzling and the art of conversation. She will be missed dearly by everyone's life she touched.
Jackie was predeceased by brother Ian, dad Sylvester, mom Audrey Joyce, sisters Michele & Yvonne, and brother Tony. She is survived by sisters Sylvia & Elaine, brothers Robert, David & Billy. Also living are all of her nieces & nephews including Jamie & Sharon, her children and grandchildren. Jackie loved her children; her boys Matthew & Joey and her girls Diahann & Jacqueline. She especially loved her grandchildren: Ashley, Zachary, Michael and Mia. To see Jackie called "LaLa" was to witness pure joy.
A true Hippie at heart, Jackie was tough and spoke her mind; she was also kind and caring. Jackie did what she needed to do, and what she wanted to do right until the end.
