On November 9, 2019, Jacqueline (Jaci) Rosina Elizabeth Hartman (nee Wiltshire-Bredeck), age 78, of Pennsauken, NJ passed away surrounded by family. Jaci was the beloved wife of Wally J. Hartman and is also survived by her children Lisa Schnibbe-Hunt, Jason (Lori) Schnibbe, Denise (Craig) Lesack, Lisa (James) Mazzeo and Donna (Michael) Maglio. She was predeceased by her parents, Henry Wiltshire and Margorita (Richard) Bredeck, and by her first-born daughter Karen Theresa. She is also survived by 14 grandchildren: Hailey Rosina, William, Daniel, Emily, Morgan, Lindsay, Melissa, Ashley, Jenna, Jamie, Mason, Francesco, Michael, and Anthony.

Jaci was born and raised in Surrey, England and came to the United States as a teenager. She was a strong, stubborn, independent woman who loved unapologetically. She was a fierce and dedicated advocate for her children and grandchildren and was a huge part of their lives. She loved playing games with her grandchildren, giving piggyback rides, and making them feel happy and treasured. She loved animals and tried to rescue as many as she could. She was involved in the Seven Sisters Prayer Ministry through St. Peter Roman Catholic Church. She enjoyed music, especially Bon Jovi, crossword puzzles, reading, and watching crime dramas, but her favorite thing was having family gatherings…she was happiest when her whole family was together for a meal or holiday. She was a giving person and would often help others. She had a wicked sense of humor and had no problem speaking her mind. She was a force to be reckoned with and will be greatly missed.
