In a statement about the late actress, singer Rick Springfield, who at one point was also famously known for briefly appearing in General Hospital in the 1980s, expressed his sorrow over her passing.
“I was utterly shocked and heartbroken to learn of Jackie’s passing. Such a genuinely kind person, without a hint of a diva, had kind words to say about everyone. She was the one (along with Gloria Monty) who helped launch my 80s career when after the screen test along with several other hopeful young men, Gloria asked Jackie who she thought would make a good Noah Drake. God bless her if Jackie didn’t say me,” Springfield shared. I send you to love as your spirit soars, sweet girl. You left your mark on many of us, and you will not be forgotten,” he said.
Her two daughters survive Jacklyn Zeman.
