hello my beautiful hirschs,
i just came on the website to post basically the second half to Pauline's story. it was like you picked out the exact time we'd both be stuffing our faces last saturday morning so that she could tell me about your stocking hanging up at the world famous. i miss you so much every single day. it gets so hard during this holiday season but its the little things like meeting someone else that knows you at a random time that makes me still BELIEVE that you are with me.
merry, merry, merry christmas to you hirschs. i am sending you infinite amounts of hugs through the computer right now on such a bittersweet day.
i love you all and think about you every day. <3

TJ, Jacquie, Sharon, & Torey,
I am thinking about you guys today, and always. May you find some comfort in all the good memories of many Christmas's shared with Jax. She must be so incredibly proud of all your hard work that you have done in her honor for so many others. You should feel so good about yourselves and what you are doing for Jacquie. She is watching in awe at how far her legacy has touched people. I feel very lucky that I have had the honor of being TJ's friend for so many years, and being able to know Jax and you guys. You are truly a wonderful family and I wish you nothing but love.
You're in my thoughts and prayers,
Love, Lauren |

| Merry Christmas Hirsch Family! I know this is tough for you, but Jacquie is with us. I am reminded of her all the time! My sister works at the IB now and sent me a picture of Jacquie's stocking hanging in the bar. The next morning I saw Jacquie's little at the bagel store and got to share it with her! Jacquie is with us! I know it! Love, Pauline |

| Merry Christmas my beautiful Jacquie, may this message make its way to heaven. Miss you so very much. Thank you for helping me pick out gifts again this year. I love you, but you already know that. Keep watching over us and those who need an angel's touch. Love forever, Dad |

| Hi Jacquie, It is hard to write on here because of all the thoughts that go through my mind and heart. I know your mom will read this to you although, like all of us, I wish you were reading it and there was never even the need for a site to have to even go to to begin with. I want you you to know I drop touches of you all around when I can...I coach with someone who loves tink so am giving her a pen to use and I stuck Tink on the pen and added "Believe" with purple rhinestones on each side. I added a purple Believe to my Balance beam board on the wall for the girls to read...I try to use it wherever I can to help myself and others to "Believe". Missing you, thinking of you, remembering you. Love to you whole family and strength for each new moment and step. Your mom wished a rainbow for me here in ABQ and I think I will see it. Love, Sara |

Good Morning!
Sharon I just read your post about Sandra and Tim's wedding...you are 100% correct that we are so lucky that as a group of friends we are all still so close and that we are all still there for each other. I firmly believe that Jacquie is making that happen and helping to show us what true friendship is all about. I went to Mike Kelley and Chris Fedele's house the other night and on their Christmas tree was a Jacquie purple braclet...that reminded me how much everyone loves and misses Jax...it reminded me that I am lucky to have a group of people around me who I can laugh and cry too when telling stories about Jax.
I know how hard the Holiday's are...this year we only have one ornament on our tree...because after 5 years it is still difficult to get into the Holiday spirit completely...just try and remeber that on Christmas (as well as everyday) thousands of people are thinking about you and Jacquie, (and the rest of your family). I hope this Holiday season brings you some peace and joy.
Love you always!!

When I see you in picture's and in my dreams you're so close like I can reach out and feel you, and touch you and hug you again. I wish you could come back, back here with me and with us. Where you belong. I miss you more and more each day. I hope you're safe now. I miss you and I love you.

Today is a day my heart goes out to those in pain and sufferring...all who cannot see the love surrounding us because of the clouds of sadness...today is the day I want all of us to remember the good we have right in front of us...we quickly forget all that God does for us...as we move on to our own next challenges...Christmas is about Jesus birthay it is a celebration for him...that we do with our friends and families...and yes it is true... every year the celebration seems a bit different because people have been taken from us...our dear loved ones are gone...but let us NOT forget they are in heaven @ home with our Lord who loves them even more than we do...if that is at all possible...but He does and he is keeping them pain free, and whole...and happy...
Please know and believe in this...No one in this entire world wants more for us than God does...He does not want us to be afraid of Him ...he wants us to run to Him with our pain and suffering....It is only Him who can give true peace and comfort....So as Christmas approaches, as generations come and go...in a world that is constantly changing, the stability of your faith can get you through all adversity if your focus on the season is in the right place...try celebrating Jesus birth and you will see it will make a difference in the Holiday... My peace and loves goes out to all of you.... |

Sharon- I just wanted to say thank you so much for the beautiful hand written card that came with my Tink ornament. I don't know how you have the strength to keep doing these amazing and thoughtful things, but it is an inspiration to us all. I know Jax is so proud of everything you are doing to honor her life. The ornament is front-and-center on my tree and it reminds me all the time of the memories I shared with Jacquie.
Hirsch's- I hope you are handling the holiday season as best as you can. You are in thousands of people's thoughts and prayers.
And lastly, I miss you and love you Jax :)
Always believing,

| Hello Hirschs, I know I don't write as much as I used to. It was so much easier to find words to encourage Jacquie in her fight and to tell her we were behind her and to keep fighting. It was easier because I truly believed that one day I would stop writing on this wall - Jacquie would be better and we'd be going out to parties and movies and there would be no need for this wall. I hate that now it's words of comfort that I need to find rather than words of encouragement. Especially because I know that most words don't comfort the way they need to. Please just know that even though I don't write on the wall as much as I did that I think of you all constantly. My Tink ornament has the most prominent spot on my tree. The world is a little less bright without Jacquie in it... she has taught us all so much and I think of her everyday. I'm also just so thankful that she was a part of my life. I know words can't comfort like they need to but please know that I am thinking of you and sending you love and I hold Jacquie in my heart every minute of every day. Love you guys, Sadie |

| Dear Hirsch Family: I was in NYC recently trying to get some holiday spirit & when I came upon Macy's, written across the huge store was the word "BELIEVE" in big beautiful red christmas lights!! Once again Jacquie was there to bring a smile to my face. I miss her so. Always in my heart. |
| Jennifer Warnes - 2009-12-14 13:37:07 |
Dear Sharon, Torey, and TJ,
It was a privilege and an honor to share in the memorial service with you yesterday. My heart aches for all of you. There are just no words. I want you to know that I think about all of you and pray for you every day. However, it is still such a helpless feeling.
Please find your strength in Jacquie's memory to help you through this difficult season.
My love to all of you,
Jennifer

Hirsch's, I am thinking of you all, especially during this holiday season. I know this must be very bittersweet, I am thinking of you all.
Jax-I miss you so much. Wherever I am, something always reminds me of you. I always know you are with us all. Always believing in you.
Love you lots,
mandz |

| I am so grateful and privileged to have been a friend of Jacquie's. She was such an amazing person and, each day, I find things that remind me of her. It breaks my heart that she is gone, although I know she served a higher purpose. She captivated so many with her positive spirit and beautiful smile. She made so many people open their eyes and really get to know what life was all about... I miss her so much... To the Hirsch family-- I am sure the holiday season is bittersweet and I hope you find comfort knowing that Jacquie has changed and altered so many lives, for the better. I will love you and miss you, forever... |

We are all thinking about you on this Thanksgiving day. We are hoping that the love and support of your family and friends will help get you through this holiday season. We are so thankful for being touched by Jacquie and we always keep her fresh, loving, young spirit close to our hearts. Your family is forever in our prayers. May you have a peaceful Thanksgiving.
Love, The Meholick Family |

| Hirsch Family- I used to write in this guestbook before when Jax was sick. But I'm still checking it and listening to your writings and updates. I'm still following you with tears down my face. All I want to do is make you smile. The entire optional team talks about how we LOVE to see you guys smile. Maybe that's why I'm such a dork at the gym :) just to see you flash a smile. And maybe say "an expression you haven't heard in a while. So you can go and tell your brother" (Torey). Hahaha. Each time I see you guys, there comes plenty of laughs too. And Tor, you might have noticed this- but in the gym, before I do something I'm scared of or is dangerous i grab my Jacquie bracelet and it gives me the strength to do it. And she keeps me safe. She gives me the courage. I BELIEVE. |
| Wendy V - 2009-11-25 13:27:25 |
| Today, and every day, give thanks for a beautiful life well lived, an amazing legacy, and a lifetime of wonderful memories. Thinking of you and praying you find the strength and courage to face another milestone in life's journey. Wendy |

Sharon,
I feel your pain about the holidays looming over our heads. I too dread this approaching time of year. I'm sure there is no easy way to get through it, yet somehow we will. Somehow the love that Jacquie & Matt shared with us will get us through our most difficult struggles of not having them in our lives. Somehow they will show us what path to take. And I know deep inside, they will be right there beside us in our time of need. Please know I am thinking about you, and loving you. I pray for your family all the time.
Love,
Lauren |

Sharon,
While reading your posts, I realized how much strength Jax's memory gives each and every one of us. She encourages you to take that extra step forward, to hold on for one more day. Everyday Jacquie reminds me to live my life to the fullest; openly with love, with courage, and mainly with the determination to make MY dreams come true. I pray that each day you find more strength, and become more resolute to keep moving forward.
I love you and I am always BELIEVING,
Miranda |

| I LOVE my new Vera!! Every time I look at it, or one of my others, all I can think of is Jacquie and her brave fight. It is so amazing to be in a room with so many people who BELIEVE and all want to fight in Jacquie's memory. I can't wait til next year to get a new Vera :) Always believing and thinking of the 4 of you, Cassey Stallman |
| Casey Stiokas - 2009-11-21 21:01:42 |
| Sharon, Torey, and TJ, It was so wonderful to see you last night. I cannot wait to be able to use my new Vera lunch box at school! Sharon, don't worry, there is no way that I could EVER forget about Jax. She is with me every single day, and I laugh at the stories that I would be telling her about teaching and grad school. I think about you often, and I never stop BELIEVING. God bless, Casey |

| SO many things these days have been reminding me of you ... and my heart just breaks. Jacquie, I miss you so much. I only knew you for a few short years, but i don't think you'll ever know the impact you have made on my life. It's just so unfair you aren't with us anymore. I miss you Jax |

Good Morning,
I listen to WYRK all day while I'm at work...and just now a song came on that makes me teary eyed (but in a nice way) everytime...it reminds me of Jacquie! I am sure you have heard it but I had to write about it on here as tonight is Jax's party and she has been on my mind alot these past few days!!
The song is: Cryin' For me (wayman's song) by Toby Keith. If you haven't heard it go try and listen to it or read the lyrics. It is beautiful and shows you how important friendships are!!
Love you! See you tonight!
xoxoxo

Dear Jax,
Its been so long, and the hurt never goes away. Each day I get up wondering if it will be a liitle easier, or if it will hurt a little less. But it never does. The hole is too big to fill. Realizing that for now & forever this is the way things are and the way they have to be seems like a constant battle. Trying with everything I can to deny it and hope that it isnt real, hope that it goes away always seems to be a losing one. But the way in which you shine though, I almost welcome the mental struggle just to imagine you, to see you and hear you some more. We're all doing great things for you and for so many others. I know wherever you are you're smiling, and laughing and happy. The way you always were, the way you always will be. I love and miss you so much Jacquie, stay close to us.

| Hello wonderful Hirsch Family, I've been talking about Jax so much lately. I mean I talk about her all the time but lately I've been getting to talk about her publicly which has been so great. I was the guest speaker at an assembly at a middle school the other day- they were raising money for ACS and asked me to come in to talk about how cancer has touched my life. It was amazing because they were middle school kids and being completely crazy before I went on. As the teachers were addressing them they were talking, laughing and doing that thing where one will cough and someone else will cough louder etc. I was a little nervous because there were like 300 kids and they were totally not paying attention!! The first thing that I said when I went up to the podium was "my friend Jacquie loved Tinkerbell" I then went in to tell her story and how she inspired so many people and how she was the best teacher I've ever known. The kids did not make a peep the entire time I was speaking. They listened so intently to Jacquie's story and were so clearly inspired - it was touching. Afterwords a few of the kids came up to me to tell me about how cancer had touched their lives. One little girl was excited to tell me that her dad also stayed in the NYC Hope lodge. He had passed away a few days before and she was so glad to tell her story to me. I was so angry that this little girl had to deal with that. It fueled my hatred of cancer even more. CANCER SUCKS!!!!! I just want you to know that Jacquie continues to teach - last week she taught hundreds of middle school kids to believe and she will continue to teach forever. I love you guys and not a day goes by that I don't think of you and think of Jax. Keep believing. <3 Sadie PS - Phil proposed to me this weekend! I said yes and am so excited. I just wish I could get a big Jacquie hug because I know she'd be so excited too! Actually I have this feeling that she was there when it happened and laughed because someone actually agreed to marry Phil ;-) |

| I was at a soccer game on Sunday morning and I swear I saw Jacquie out on the field. There was a girl who looked so similar I had to do multiple double takes...she knew I needed a smile and for that I am greatful. |

Hi!!
I am not sure if you get the Eddie Bauer catalogue...but my boss does (and since I get all of his mail first I got to see it)...well the whole Holiday Catalogue is about believing!!!! I loved it!! Every page is about believing in something. It really reminded me that Jax is with us and in more ways then 1...she is sending out reminders to us all that she is with us!!
Jacquie is truly everywhere!!
Love you and thank you for all that you do for us!

Dear Sharon, Torey, and TJ
Congratulations to all of you for the honor you received last evening for your efforts to raise funds and rally such a fantastic team together in Jacquie's name to support The Ride for Roswell. It was a privilege to be there and share in that time. Jacquie would be so very proud of all of you.
My love and God's Blessings,
Jennifer |

Just wanted to tell you how I've been thinking of you all. Memories flood in of all our times together.
I hope these next few months are not too painful. Remember how much Jax loved holidays. She'll be watching, enjoying them with you from above. I hope you can have moments of happiness.
We love you all! Indie |

| Hi Hirsch Family, I wanted you to know that I think, do, and act for Jax every single day. Over the weekend, I got two friends of mine & Drew to go with me to the Ronald McDonald House in Waikiki. It was an absolutely beautiful house. It had the most amazing view, gorgeous porch, furniture, even the kitchen was spotless. On Saturday night the four of us cooked dinner for 25 people (families of kids getting treatment, staff at the house, and people who have cancer) all staying at the house. We made goolash, had a green salad bar, fruit salad, garlic bread, and brownies. There was so much food...and even so many leftovers. Not everyone was well enough to come down for dinner at the time, but those that did were so grateful and we sat down with them and had an amazing dinner. Those that I met reminded me of your family - they had a feeling of strength and courage about them, like they were appreciative of every moment, every person, and every breath. It made me feel so close to Jax I was moved to tears just being there. I felt like she was all around me.... I know you all and Jax had your fair share in different housing settings and lodges. And I wanted to somehow be a part of that and reach out - because if everyone does a little where then can, so many lives can be touched. Jacquie gave me the idea to do this, the strength to do it, and the motivation. She has truly made a difference in lives above and beyond anyone can comprehend. I will send you pictures from the RMH...Love you all and Miss you all the time ~ xoxo Love, Nicki |

Today, Novemeber 2nd, is my birthday but it also marks All Souls Day. Today in school we took a few moments to pray for the people who have passed in our lives, and I immediatly thought of Jacquie. Today is a day for everyone to remember there loved ones who have left this world, and I just thought that I would share with you that Jax has been in my mind all day. I love you all, with my whole heart and I am thinking of you every day.
Always Believing,

| it's been so long but i've been having so much trouble finding the words.. I wish you could have been there for the sun & the rain & the long, hard hills. For the sound of a thousand conversations scattered along the road. For the people laughing & crying & remembering at the end. But, mainly, I wish you could have been there. brian andreas found them for me. i miss you so much it hurts and i wish you could have been here for a thousand different things i did, and will do. stay strong, hirschs<3 -sammie |

| I've heard this Kenny Chesney song a lot recently, it keeps bringing my mind back to Jax. I wish I had the words to take the pain away. Sending love to all those who miss our beautiful angel. Sunny days seem to hurt the most. I wear the pain like a heavy coat. I feel you everywhere I go. I see your smile, I see your face, I hear you laughin' in the rain. I still can't believe you're gone. It ain't fair: you died too young, Like the story that had just begun, But death tore the pages all away. God knows how I miss you, All the hell that I've been through, Just knowin' no one could take your place. sometimes I wonder, Who'd you be today? Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams? Settle down with a family, I wonder what would you name your babies? Some days the sky's so blue, I feel like I can talk to you, An' I know it might sound crazy. It ain't fair: you died too young, Like the story that had just begun, But death tore the pages all away. God knows how I miss you, All the hell that I've been through, Just knowin' no one could take your place. An' sometimes I wonder, Who you'd be today? Today, today, today. Today, today, today. Sunny days seem to hurt the most. I wear the pain like a heavy coat. The only thing that gives me hope, Is I know I'll see you again some day. Some day, some day, some day. |

Good Morning!!
I don't dream of Jacquie or my Mom often, actually I hate to say it and it makes me really sad, but it is a rare occassion that I dream of them. I guess I could look it at as a good thing...like they only come when I really need them.
Anyways...last night I dreamt that Mr. Hirsch let me drive his newest sports car...who knows why he would let me do that but he did. And I was driving it to meet him in a parking lot at UB. Once I got there Jacquie was there too!! And the thing I really remember most was her hair and her smile. Her hair had grown back it was sooo long and shinny. It had blonde with light brown lowlights/highlights. She couldn't stop touching it!! And she was smiling...and laughing (espcially because I didn't crash the car)....I believe that this was Jacquie's way of telling me that she is okay and happy in heaven!!
I love you and hope you have a Happy Halloween!!
xoxo
