She spent her childhood in Digby and Bear River, Nova Scotia moving to Medicine Hat in 1995. As a child, Jill was our little social butterfly – loving, kind, always wanting to please. She joined the Baptist Church Youth Group, took piano lessons, liked to ski, skate and swim, and excelled at building things with wood. She had friends all across Canada. The love in her heart never faded. As Jill grew up, she became our little gypsy moving from here to there. Jill enjoyed cooking (especially baked chicken and spaghetti). She enjoyed attending church throughout her life and most of all, Jill loved her girls with all her heart. Rest in Peace our sweet angel. Love you forever and always, to the moon and back. The Funeral Service will be held at FIFTH AVENUE MEMORIAL UNITED CHURCH at a later date.
