My condolences to Tom, Scott, and family… Jill and I grew up together for many many years. We’ve known each other over 70 years through many stages of life…, good and bad. Separated by distance, I hadn’t seen her in a long time. But she was the most gentle, loving, caring person, especially to her friends, family and animals. I will always remember the good times. May she rest in peace with her loved ones in heaven. Love you my friend ❤️

Tom and Scott, and your family - I am so very sincerely sorry for your loss of Jill. She often was around us as part of the family and friends. She was always supportive of her Son Scott and I know he'll miss his Momma as Tom will miss his wife too. You're all in my prayers and thoughts. She'll be celebrating in heaven with all of her family and friends.
