Jackie
you only got a hundred years to live
Long time friend Jackie only made it to 57 years in her lifetime and did a lot of living within that time frame. But I'm angry that she didn't get a higher percent of fun times; as you can see she was surrounded by a sea of paperwork when I worked for her Access Information Services in 2006. It was always hard to explain the paperwork she was involved in and it was somewhat confidential anyways.Â
We had a nice shakedown cruise on her Bayliner at Brant Lake one day with her enduring partner Roger. Roger ran a Harley motorcycle shop among other things. I'd known Jackie since her teen days when she came to softball games to watch her Dad, my coworker and longtime family friend.
I worked part-time for her in my retirement mostly just as a runner, shuttling paperwork between various county, state and federal agencies and courthouses but also doing computer searches there. When Jackie was at he Florida home I'd stay in contact with her while doing my duties. She was always generous and quick to let me have fun and take time off from my duties. I only lasted a year or so before the paperwork got to be too much.
Her passing was quick and unexpected, some kind of a fever as yet undetermined. I don't want this to be a sob story (but it is), and just a reminder, like the song - "Everyday's a new day". I just couldn't let this pass without saying something.

Lee, Jacqueline "Jackie" PORT ORANGE, Fla. Jackie Lee was taken suddenly from us on March 12, 2019, at her home in Port Orange. Her short journey in life has touched countless hearts and she will be missed greatly. Her successes in life were immeasurable! Her achievement list was long, but most dear to her were her family and friends. She was a kind, generous, compassionate, intelligent and adventurous woman who was full of life! She was a caring daughter, a true friend, loving aunt, a warm hostess, a dedicated professional and an incredible cook. Her passions were her niece and nephew, her motorcycle rides, Daytona 500 bike week, enjoying music at NOLA, her dogs and cats, time with her family in the Adirondacks, fishing and bonfires at the grove with her lifetime friends. Her laughter was infectious, and people were drawn to her for her gentle disposition. Jackie was founder of Access Information in 1993. She later moved to Port Orange and started Diligent Corporate Services. She was a sought after expert in the legal community for her practical knowledge of the complex Uniform Commercial Code. She was the initial editor of The Uniform Commercial Code Filing Guide. She was a tireless worker who provided superior service to all her customers. Jackie's love of good food, fun Florida venues, and meeting people resulted in their successful catering business, Fat Boys Grill, which fed many hungry visitors. Jackie leaves behind her parents, John and Loretta Lee; her sister, Kristine Nusbaum (Donny); her adored niece and nephew, Amanda and Ryan; her partner Roger Putnam and a host of relatives. She leaves an extended group of dear friends in New York, Florida and throughout the U.S., including Kimmy and Aiden; her many rescue cats and dogs especially Rudy. Only the good die young. A toast to an amazing woman! We tip our glass to you! You are forever in our hearts! Relatives and friends are invited to visit with Jackie's family on Tuesday from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Cannon Funeral Home, 2020 Central Ave., Colonie.
