Jill, you are sadly missed by all who loved and adored you. Your life on this earth was to short for those you left behind. I know God has his purpose for you - he needed you more than we did, but makes it very hard for us to understand him taking you so soon. He must have known the pain you were in. Your suffering is now forever gone, for you are in a better place,and in his arms.

Forever loved and adored

your cousin, Donna
