Dear Friends, Family, and Community,

My name is Hicham and I supported Jacques as a friend and volunteer with Jacques International Language Academy since 2018.

It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we come together to remember and honor the life of our dear friend, Jacques Sarr, who left us unexpectedly. Jacques touched the lives of many with his warmth, kindness, and infectious spirit.

As we navigate through the grief and mourning, we are faced with the responsibility of arranging Jacques' memorial service and funeral. We are reaching out to you to seek support in ensuring that Jacques receives the farewell he deserves.

Jacques' sister and niece have arrived in Chicago and the donations received are being used to cover the cost of Jacques' burial and memorial service. Thank you to everyone who was able to make a contribution to lay Jacques to his final resting place.
