McCoy-Blossom Funeral Homes & Crematory - TroyJill Stone Obituary
After graduation from high school, she began working for Chrysler, just like her parents. In fact, this is where she met her soulmate, James Henry Stone. The couple was married in June 1977. Together they raised their children: James, Elizabeth, Jeremy and Robert. About 40 years ago, the couple moved to Troy to enjoy country living. Jill was a loving, wife, mother, sister, and grandmother and cherished each and everyone of her family members.
When Jill had a free moment, she enjoyed sewing, quilting, loved taking care of her chickens and dogs and also liked tending to her flower beds. She was a very industrious woman who did not have a lazy bone in her body.
She is survived by her loving family members: James (Misty) Stone, Jr., of Bonne Terre, Elizabeth (David) Nothstine of Vero Beach, Florida, Robert (Riza) Stone of Troy; her four adoring grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. She is further survived by her brothers: Perry (Juana) Black of Bowling Green, Robert Rex (Pattie) Black of Troy ; many nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives and friends.
Jill was preceded in death by her beloved husband, James Henry Stone, her son, Jeremy Stone and her sister, Connie Basile.
