July 29, 2021 at 6:20 pmI knewJill over the years, neighbors on Elm St, then later years at Holt Presbyterian Church, and volunteering at McLaren sitting behind us with Ann Harmony. We on occasion would split a large plate of Nachos at Buddys.
Always enjoyed having her as a friend. I share your loss. Vern Sible

August 2, 2021 at 8:09 pmI was so sorry to hear of Jill’s passing. Jill was one of my computer students and became my friend. I would tease her, and call her my problem child. At times the computer gave her a hard time. But she was a smart lady and caught on quickly. I will miss her help calls and chatting at the Senior Center. She was a beautiful person. And she loved her family.
My condolences to all of you.
