All Condolences -

Dear Nathan and Nic, and familes, I was so very sorry to hear and read of your dear, sweet, funny, loving mother''s passing. I began babysitting for your mom when she was seven years old. She was sweet, funny and loved to do art work. She made me a picture every time I sat with her. She also did a beautiful winter picture that I have hanging in our bedroom. Everytime I look at it I smile, now with tears in my eyes. Your mother did so many things to help everyone. I loved every minute with her at work and outside work. She was the best. She loved you boys and your dad to "the moon and back." Her favorite job was being a mother and wife. Her family was the most important job to her. Love to you "Nate the skate" and "Nic" Rocks!

Jill was a wonderful soul with a heart as big as anyone. A generous, kind and lovely person. In her younger days she was filled with mischief and a twinkle in her eye when she was ready to get away with her next exploit. Many fun hours were spent with her. In later years we usually got together for breakfast with her grandson or dinner with Nick. We had our last breakfast on October 22nd and when I gave her a hug goodbye I would never have dreamed it would be our last time. Every hug is a special one. Cherish each one. She was loved and will be missed. Prayers of comfort to her family.
