Oddly enough, 2 of my favorites have Jubilee in them.
The one where she helps Xavier back to his wheelchair after a day of roller skating.

And her crying after Illyana's death

Some of us wait, some of us act.
This. Still this.
Five me a decade or so and I may get over it.
I had issues with Morrison's run, but this one he hit out of the park.
New Mutants #45, 'We Were Only Foolin', and New X-Men #32, with the post-decimation memorial service, are the first that come to mind. For some reason, when Magik claims her soul sword in her first limited series, that always strikes a chord with me.
The aforementioned Jubille post-X-Cutioner's Song moment is a favourite, and leaping off of the Lorna-Genosha moment, I still think Lorna's speech at 'Magneto's funeral is the best bit of writing Chuck Austen managed.
"Astonished, Ms Pryde" may well have been the first time a comic brought me to actual tears.
The resurrection scene/celebration from HoX/PoX is a recent entry, but definitely top tier.
Then, of course, there's the entirety of Magneto Testament. But including this on the same list as the others almost feels like cheating.
This one, I think.

When Hank and Jean returned to the mansion, alone.

“Strength is the lot of but a few privileged men; but austere perseverance, harsh and continuous, may be employed by the smallest of us and rarely fails of its purpose, for its silent power grows irresistibly greater with time.” Goethe
Off the top of my head...
"Sir, I'd like to shake your hand" from Uncanny #227.
Jean dying on the moon in #137.
Magneto turning his back on Xavier's way in #275.
Lorna in New X-Men #132 (as pictured above)
Colossus screaming "Harpoon, make peace with your Gods little man, you are NEXT!" in #212
The three page dream sequence at the end of Dark Angel Saga
Fantomex pulls the trigger at the end of Apocalypse solution, and the silent pages which follow
"Danielle... I intend to do something rash and violent." - Betsy Braddock
Krakoa, Arakko, and Otherworld forever!
Jean Grey dying on the DPS, it divided the X-men history forever. She means so much for so many people.
She died making the ultimate sacrifice for the people she loved.
Things going "The End Of The Wild Bunch" at the close of Generation Next.
