Dear Jacqueline, Darice, and all of the Moore’s
My heart is with you at this time. I was saddened to read of Jacqui’s passing – even more so because we had not kept in touch for some years.
Jaqui and I go back a long time, as you may remember. I started out as a client, became a friend, then an employee and mentor.
She used to refer to me as “The Prima Donna Bookkeeper” – because I couldn’t concentrate on my work with two seamstresses and whirring sewing machines beside me. Then came the TV, the dog and the grandkids! Not to mention all the visitors that got packed into that wonderful basement room. So, I would pack up as much of the work as possible and carry it home with me where I could work in peace and quiet.
Don’t get me wrong – I loved all of the interaction there. You never knew who was going to be the next one to come down the stairs!
I truly adored Jaqui, and would have done almost anything for her.
She gave me tremendous support and consolation when my own mother died, and I do hope that you have someone to do the same for you.
Hugs and kind regards,
Carol Young
