Perhaps this is not the most appropriate venue for this....but there was something I wanted to say and I am not sure how to reach Jill's daughters otherwise. My father was Hugh Trueman, he worked with your Mother at CFRB for that 25 year period. He always spoke very highly of your Mom. When I was in my early teens, I cut your Mom's lawn every week. Your family resided in a cormer lot home on a beauiful street in the Mineola/Stavebank area.
I have a vague memory of two very young girls running around, but I have a vivid memory of my weekly talks with your Mother inspite of the fact it "was a life time away". She was great. I had just lost my own Mother to cancer at the time and Jill was a great inspiration....never forgot it.
God Bless,

A few days ago when I went outside into a cold windy October day, I was surprised to hear birds singing. It sounded like the anthems of a late spring morning. Now, as I discover that Jill has died, I hear that song in memory of her.
After Jill learned of my father, Ivan Morgan's, passing in the Lives Lived column of the Globe, she began sending me cards and notes with bright birds and words of comfort and encouragement.
She recommended a book, OUT OF MY HEART, by the novelist, Agnes Sligh Turnbull. The book is not a novel, but Turnbull's reflections in later life.
The story in that book that Jill was particularly interested in sharing was about a day when the writer had been extremely upset. She had gone out into nature and found a path to the wild dark ocean. But suddenly she had a vision of calm waters, and heard these words, "Let the waters run gently..."
Blessings on you all, dear ones.

Carrie and Elaine:
Your mum was such a special person with a real joy of living and a great sense of humour. I really appreciated how much of a champion she was of me when I was in my late twenties and early thirties. You will miss her very much. My prayers and love and thoughts are with you. May you be surrounded by love and light.

Dear Loring/Staples and the wonderfully extended family of Aunt Jill;
For us the greatest memories were of times spent at holidays, family celebrations and the annual picnic in the park. It was there that your family welcomed ours with open arms and the joy of music. If Aunt Jill wasn't the instigator, at least she was the one to encourage your participation in the fun regardless of your rhythmic handicap. I'll play some spoons in her memory today.
Also, I couldn't feed the critter that came to our backyard yesterday after reading the news, but I could photograph her. We've nicknamed her Jill.
Lots of love!

Dearest Lainey, Sam, Kate & Max,
Although I have to admit that I didn't really know your Mum terribly well personally, I knew her through the stories which were relayed to me and from our Loring/Bornstein family gatherings. She always greeted me with a warm smile and made me feel welcome.
Lainey, I know you did absolutely everything a child could do for their parent and you should rest assured that your Mother realized it all too.
I wish you all and Carrie, Lee, Ray and Ev and the extended family my deepest condolences and know that my heart is with you all at this difficult time. I love you all.

Dearest Elaine, Sam, Kate, Max, Carrie and Lee:
Our initial encournter with your darling mother came duriing the planning of Elaine and Sam's wedding, the ceremony an intimate gathering in Jill's dining room. So much pleasure came from the dinner and reception at Ontario Place, as our two families were officially united. Grandma Mabel's speech was a special highlight.
We will always treasure our family get-togethers, with Jill, her daughters, and the Staples (and their dogs). We will always remember the warm smile on Jill's face during those happy times.
Please, Elaine and Carrie, take better care of yourselves; your mother is in a better place now, but always close.
We love you all dearly.
Jean and Ben Bornstein

I'm so sorry for your loss. Jill was a lovely, gracious, vibrant, intelligent woman with a spirit that sparkled. I know she loved and was so proud of her talented daughters who carry that lovely sparkle gene. I will remember her fondly as will anyone who ever had the pleasure to know her. She was a class act and a lovely soul who will be missed by everyone who knew her.
