Ki a te Whànau a Jackie Sayers.
Kia hora te marino, kia whakapapa pounamu te Moana, kia tere te Kàrohirohi i mua i tòu huarahi.
Arohanui, Miriama Kereama

So many memories of Jackie's unwavering commitment to us who lived in Highbury, Takaro and Westbrook, the establishment of the Highbury Whanau Support group, the late nights, the challenges and David's support too. Brilliant committed social worker and educator and so much more. Aroha to Janet and all Jackie's whanau. What a legacy she leaves social and community workers. Reading this from Singapore. Arohatinonui.

Remembering the early days studying Social Work at Massey University ,so much fun and commitment which I am sure shaped the future of social work for years to come. Hard to believe you have done your dash. My thoughts are with your family especially Lorraine, Guy and Lizzie.

Jackie, a bright and enquiring mind and never short of a quip. You wil be sadly missed by all your friends at the U3A.

Sincere condolences to Jackies family.
Jackie was a wonderful caring person, especially assisting new immigrants. She was also a valued member of the Feilding Rebus Club, she will be dearly missed. R.I.P.

We are sending our deepest condolences.

Peter,Rozalia,Balazs and David

An amazing woman who positively influenced decades of Social and Community Workers. I am one of fortunate Social Workers who crossed paths with Jackie at the beginning of my career. Rest in love Jackie. Arohanui for your Whanau. Another mighty Totara has fallen.

I have just heard of Jackie's passing and probably won't make it to her funeral on Friday. My deepest condolences to all her large whanau. I'm sure she will have a send off fitting for someone who gave so much to her community. She was a wonderful friend and mentor to me all the years we were involved with the Highbury Whanau Support Group.

Sending love to Jackie´s family and friends. Jackie you will be remembered for all you did for your community. Rest in peace. Robyn Munford
