Jill Gross Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born in 1979 in Lorain, Ohio to Guy Gross and Terri Kozmon, Jill was tough, resilient, and loyal from a young age. She was very passionate about nursing, always helping others as an RN at the Cleveland Clinic. Jill was actively going to school to pursue her dream to become a nurse practitioner.
Jill was an amazing mother, bringing two beautiful children into this world - Brooke (8) and Thomas (2) – with their father Matthew Musick. Her children meant everything to her, and Jill was never more in her element and happy than when she was with Brooke and Thomas.
Jill was a great friend, sister, mother, daughter, and so much more to those who knew her. As no surprise to those who knew her, Jill put up an immense fight in her battle with cancer over the past year – setting an example for all of us on how to face immeasurable adversity with strength and grace.
Jill leaves behind:
* Her loving daughter and son, Brooke & Thomas Musick
* Her mother Terri Kozmon (Emrock)
* Her father Guy Gross
* Laszlo Kozmon (stepfather and husband to Terri Kozmon)
* Patty Gross (stepmother)
* Randi Boss (Gross; sister)
* Matthew Musick (father to Brooke and Thomas)
* In addition, Jill is survived by the extended Gross and Emrock families representing 4 generations

My friend, I miss you. I miss your goofiness, your smile, your laughter. I miss talking about the kids with you. You were one of my greatest supporters when we were dealing with infertility. I hate that you had to worry so much about the kids during all this. But it also showed your immense love for them. I admire your love for your family. Miss you so much.

My sweet Jilly. I've known you since I was 14 ....I truly will keep all of the precious memories in my heart. From high school choir class and trips to our fun nights out, and our kids meeting . I'm sorry you went through so much . I'm glad I got to see you twice last week and will forever remember your strength and beauty and even that you refused to let me open that Gatorade bottle - because you could do it yourself..... Wednesday, you hugged me and told me you loved me, and there was such a warmth in your embrace and words. You will always be so loved and missed my dear friend. Love and miss you so much already....
