Hello & Goodbye!

A happy “Hello” and sad “Goodbye” to WA and the Community,

Yes! It is that time for me to take my leave from WA and its loved community. However, although this was a hard decision for me to make, it was a practical one. As it is, my ever-demanding caregiving lifestyle, along with other pressing personal challenges, consume more than the 24 hours that I am afforded in a day.

Therefore, June 18, 2015, will be my last day with all of you here at WA. Emotionally, this was not an easy decision, but a practical one that had to be made. The way I look at it… “What good is a family member who is unable to make regular heartfelt visits to his/her hospitable family?”

I very much look forward to returning to WA in the near future, since I am not giving up on the WA family! I am grateful to Kyle, Carson and Jay N. for opening my eyes to the online marketing world and teaching me how to compete with the best veteran marketers out there. I am also indebted to all the WA members for their individual help and support to make this a smooth and joyful journey for me, one I will never forget!

Finally, I extend my deepest gratitude to my sincere and loyal personal friends and followers who have shown their unmatched care and support to me during my difficult and challenging times. I want you to know that I am genuinely moved and humbled by your comforting comments, PMs, prayers and selfless actions. Thank you! Please rest assured that I am not disappearing from the face of the earth and that I can be reached through omwithjay@gmail.com.

I shall be missing all of you, but I am looking forward to the day that I can come back to WA and announce my return by posting it on my new WA Profile. Thank you everyone for all you have done to make me feel at home here at WA. You are a beautiful bunch of caring people striving to accomplish your individual set goals, despite your own challenges, while giving all you can to help each other along the way. How uniquely fantastic! Thank you WA and the WA community!

With a heavy heart and good wishes to everyone,

Jay Barnelli

P.S.

For those of you who may be wondering, my joyofcaregiving.com site will remain intact and you are quite welcome to check it out.

Also, please forgive me if you don’t see any reply from me to your comments here after June 18, 2015, since I would no longer be able to access this WA platform. I am sorry, but you do have my email address above.

Thanks!
