May your memories give you peace and comfort of your loved one. Words fall short of expressing my sorrow for the loss of your loved one. May GOD be with you all during this difficult time. 1 Thessalonians 4:14 For if we have faith that Jesus died and rose again, so too God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in death through Jesus.

Jill was at Mount Carmel Academy in my first years here. She was a delightful bundle of energy, who helped me to learn to be a principal. Eternal rest for her and God's blessing for the gift of memory for all
who loved her. Love, Sister Camille Anne
