    Jacqueline was one of the rare individuals that could lift my spirits to a place that I didn't know they could be lifted to.... sober. Thank you Jax. I only knew her a short time in the past several months but she has a permanent spot in my heart. We spent many late nights writing poetry together, watching MTV Classics from the 80's, sharing wonderful stories about her life growing up with her family, her hopes and dreams for Malakai, her faith in God, and the time that she spent with Tauna & "Mr. Butch" Schachle. Sometimes I suppose the one's of us that love too much bruise too easily. All of your bruises are gone now precious girl. I will always appreciate what you gave to me.
