Dear Family, I was one of her students about twenty years ago. She was one of my favourite teachers. An amazing teacher and always had respect for young students. My deepest condolences. Val

Jim, Brandon and Phil,
"Brandon & Phil, your momma always bragged about you boys, and for good reason; you are both such great young men."
I actually cannot remember a moment that I spent with Jill that wasn't a lot of fun. Whether it was just catching up in a simple chit chat at the gym or drinking wine at the Tecumseh Wine fest; even just trying to avoid the mosquito's in the summer, we would still have so much fun. She was the type of person you would never avoid. When and if you would see her, you would just make a straight bee-line right towards her. May God now show her how much she was loved and cherished. May he bring light and happiness upstairs where she is now, and shed light onto her loved ones. Please believe that you all shall be together again one day.
With heavy hearts and lots of love...

Jill was one of the most memorable people I have ever met. She had a way of making a person or crowd feel cheerful just by smiling or saying a word. A very rare person and friend. Barb and I extend our most heart-felt condolences to Jim and family.

Jim, there was no one more intelligent, athletic and beautiful than Jill Sandercock when we were teenagers. It was no surprise that she became a teacher and a mentor. I am truly sorry for your loss.

How fortunate I was to have been placed in Mrs Liddy's class as a student teacher. She was stern, fair and a great role model. A fantastic teacher indeed. God bless you!

Dear Jimmy, Phil/Alicia & Brandon/Erika
There are no words to express the amount of sorrow and sadness that overcomes me when I think of what you are having to face. I know how much you adored, cherished and loved your Wife/Mother. You will all be a FOREVER part of my life, and it humbles me to have you embrace me in your lives. You are all beautiful souls, as Jilly always raved of. It is truly an honour. Thinking of you with a heavy heart. Love, Serena

My name is Tracy and I'm the secretary for OECTA, I first met Jill when she came to the office when she was first diagnosed, we talked a lot as Im a breast cancer survivor, we talked a lot thru her treatments, she was a very special women, she had strength, courage but most of all a very positive attitude, we connected in a way I can't explain but just to let you know I will miss Jill dearly, she really meant something to me and I'm sooo sorry for your loss, I got lucky in that about 3 weeks before xmas Jill and I went out for lunch, I dropped her off at home and gave her a kiss goodbye not knowing it would be the very last time but at least I got to spend some time with her before she passed God Bless you Jim and all your family xoxo
