I am devastated by the loss of my beloved sister Jacquelyn. We shared so many happy memories growing up together in New Rochelle, later Miami, Scarsdale, and Mamaroneck ... our parents sure knew how to move. Since we were children, Jacquelyn was loving, kind, caring, and compassionate to so many .... but while I was always jealous of her tutu, she wisely never made a career as ballet dancer. Vic Smith owned the local Stride Right store in Wykagyl (sp?) .... his brother "Buffalo Bob" got us front row seats on Howdy Doody. She laughed with the other kids throughout the telecast, I cried buckets of tears because I had no idea that Howdy was a puppet. Jackie and I both got the toys to take home and she gave me her share. I join so many others in offering condolences. This is a very sad day, indeed. Jeff Volk

Dr. Blum and Family: What a wonderful heartfelt commemoration of her extraordinary life. Even the small fraction I previously knew was amazing. I don't know how we connected, but the connection was wonderful, beginning several years before Covid. She always had a positive outlook and uplifting comments. What a mensch! In this troubled world, we need more like her. May her memory be for a blessing to all she knew and touched, a number that is many fold the number of you. Alan Schlaifer

Dr. Blum & Family, I am so sorry to learn of Jackie’s passing. To say Jackie was my “Jewish Mama” is quite an understatement. In 2013, I met Jackie via Iona’s student employment website. With no mother figure, Jackie empathized and quickly became my Jewish mother and listener for the turmoil I was enduring. Jackie thrived with Zusia and made connections with thousands of leaders worldwide. I will carry the learnings Jackie educated me with for the rest of my life. Jackie epitomized graciousness, empathy, and a little bit of kindhearted stubbornness! I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to the Blum family for sharing Jackie with us. The world is in a better place because of people like Jackie and David. Love, Tim, Susie, and Raelyn Davis

Our deepest condolences to the Blum family. I Worked with Dr. Blum for Over 15 years and throughout those years, I’ve seen the children grow up into adults and manage to have an immense love for the family. I remember when I had my back surgery it was during Thanksgiving holiday and Dr. Volk sent Dr. Blum with a Thanksgiving feast for my family and for those things I am very grateful for and never will never Forget. So with this rest in peace, Dr. Volk.
