My deepest sympathy on your loss. She must have been a very special loving woman. My prayers are with you all.
My sincere condolences. I worked with Jocelyn at ABA. I was the Parent Support Coordinator that worked with families. They all loved Jocelyn dearly, not only for the amazing work and transformations she did with the kiddos, but also for her generous and loving heart for the families. What a blessing she has been to so many who loved her dearly...including all of us at ABA. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.
Jocelyn is going to be so very missed. She was the first senior therapist that I worked with when I get hired with ABN. She taught me so much & fueled my passion for my job. She inspired me to make it into a career, which I will be doing when I get my degree. Jocelyn truly has been my role model for the past 3 1/2 years. I find it nearly impossible to believe that someone so full of life could be gone. But she will never be forgotten.
My thoughts and prayers are with her family and everyone else that she has been so touched by. <3
I just found out about Jocelyn today. I went to Mckinley with her. I knew her and she knew me, having some of the same friends back in those days. I was so saddened to hear this and it didn't hit me for a couple hours, but it did. She was just a nice person. With that smile, and personality to match. No way to describe her, one of a kind, had to have known her personally. I had moved from Racine around 93-94. Again so sorry to hear.
