not sure how to link posts from another thread... but wanted to share what I wrote on heath's news page about Jackie since I'm finding out about both today...
so just as i hit "post" to send my comments about heath, I noticed the news thread about Jackie... I haven't been on in a long time and I feel horrible that I am finding out now about my beloved BBM mentor. She was the first to welcome me here... The first person I met at a showing of the movie in Virginia. She made sure I was always included in things and even brought back little trinkets from the many gatherings she attended. I know BBM an this forum and those she met and loved changed her life and I was in awe of her ability to let it. Her tag line from the movie "well I won't" speaks volumes to me in what this entire experience meant to her.
I'm shocked, saddened, and hope she knows that while I may not have been online, I was always thinking of her... always thinking of all of you...
