Dearest Family of Dr. Jacqueline Corey Hain:  It is with profound sadness that I have just learned of the passing of your dear Mother, Wife, and Family matriarch and our Outstanding Leader and Physician & Surgeon colleague. Spending much of my life in Hyde Park as well, I enjoyed very much learning more about her profound accomplishments - a Strong Woman, indeed! As the Chair of the Illinois State Medical Society Rules and Order of Business Committee, we want to share our appreciation and sincere gratitude for her service to the Committee and thoughtful and caring advice and opinions as we considered and crafted Legislation for our State's largest Physician organization.  With Her help and suggestions we became a better Organization, able to help our Patients, our Communities, and Physician Practices in a far more meaningful manner.  We owe much of that to Dr. Corey Hain.  Thank you for sharing her with us; we are all better for it!  God Bless you as you grieve her transition, and do so knowing she indeed left the World a better place.  Sincerely Yours,  Steven D. Williams, MD FACS, for our Society President Dr. Piyush Vyas, and the Illinois State Medical Society and Staff.

My heartfelt condolences to Jacky’s children and family.  I was Jacky’s nurse for 10 years , from 1989-1999.  Although we drove each other crazy sometimes, she was always a kind and generous person to work with.  Jacky helped so many people with allergy, sinus and voice problems.  Her patients stayed with her for years.  She was incredibly patient and thorough. 

My deepest condolences to Jacky's family! I was so saddened to hear of Jacky's passing. We were friends and roommates as students at Carleton. Many of my fondest memories from college are of the good times we had together. I'm posting a photo of Jacky with the cat who shared our dorm room on first Goodhue during our sophomore year. Her love of cats, as well as her passion for music and dedication to an exemplary career in medicine stood out even then.  In sympathy,

Bev
