When I first saw this a few years ago I could not help think of my Angel Bride whose smile always radiated the universe. But more my favorite singer-songwriter Brianna Lea Pruett who lost her battle with depression Sept of 2015. It is heart wrenching to see such beauty leave our world. Jill is an angel now as is Brenda, my angel bride and Brianna. One of my favorite lines in a song by Bri. "The wiping of the tears on memorys and years."

My condolences to all of Jill's family and friends. Jill was amazing. Always kind and welcoming to all. I would always sit at her table watching Tim and others play live music, and she was always the most wonderful, fun and considerate friend. Heaven gained an angel!

I met Jill when living in Tucson, shortly before she and Tim married. I went to many shows with my group of Tucson friends and always wound up sitting and chatting with Jill. She had a fine appreciation of my sarcasm and the smarts and breadth of education to catch my obscure references on any topic, and she could and would dish it back. We could be watching an opening band, and I would make a bad pun about a rock type, and she laughed with understanding. She had a joyous and intelligent and appreciative laugh, in fact, she had a spectacular laugh (and smile). She had a rich and sophisticated sense of humor, and this made friendship with her delightful and easy. Although I moved from Tucson soon after meeting her, we kept up on Facebook. I loved all of her posts about her older, somewhat(!)-immobile-with-age dog, Buster. My life is enriched for having known Jill, and I am sorry for everyone for her passing.

Hey Jill, you were the best roommate I ever had. I am so sorry that you're gone. This world lost a good heart when you passed on. You were one of the coolest, smartest, most beautiful people I knew. When you and Sparky moved in with my cat Bannor and I, it was a match made in heaven. Except for when Sparky kept getting into the litter box. I remember how stunning you looked in your wedding dress. I remember when you baked fortune cookies from scratch with fortunes inside them. You were so kind to send condolences for my Dad when he recently passed away. I so sorry you were so sad, because you brought genuine joy to all who knew you. Love Johanna

We first met you when your family lived in Colorado. As I recall you are a great artist who made my kids a great drawing of a horse. I think I still have it in the archives. Will always remember your beautiful smile and the few times we were together in later years are special.
