Hi Keith, I'm going to miss seeing her smiling face. I don't think I ever saw her without a smile. God be with you and your family

"The angels are always near to those who are grieving, to whisper to them that their loved one is safe in His hands" Please know that Jill and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. She was such a sweet lady, we will miss her down at the ballpark. ~ Karl & Connie Csedo

Our sympathy goes out to Jill's family.
Jill was a very sweet and kind person. She
was always so friendly to us and we were inspired by the smile she always wore with everything she had going on. We said prayers for Jill all of the time. She holds a special place in our hearts.

We wish her peace.
With Love,
Sherry and Randy Z.
