I’d sure love to see Brandon and Lindsy again. For many years in our early 20’s , we were best friends. We went everywhere in her powder blue Honda Civic. I spent a many weekends in the U district at her home in Seattle. I even worked for Dan on weekends when he the “club. “. Big times back then, unforgettable!

I've looked for Jill off and on for the past 40+ years. I started looking again about a week ago. I just found this and cried!!!!
This is Carla Branch, class of '73. I'm stunned, Jill, Francis Savage and I were great friends at SHAPE!!! Jill and I were inseparable. We did reconnect for a short while after we came back to the states. She told me she married a wonderful man and had two beautiful children. We lost touch again after my many moves. As we all know, such is the life of a military family!!!
I have thought of Jill many times over the years and remember our many escapades at SHAPE and being TAs for the kindergarten classes, among many other things, lol. Memorable days I will carry with me till the end of my days. Jill was the best friend I ever had all those years ago and she still lives in my heart today!!! I even still have the stuffed elephant she gave me back then. She loved elephants!!!
Picture of us in Holland on Senior Skip Day. I take comfort in knowing I will see her again one day!!!
My prayers to all the family

My dear Jill
Was an inspiration to us all and her conviction and her desire to only want the best in life chose to end her pain as she orchestrated the end of her life like a great opera as she had us all in awe of her courage her way she had us all including herself to be one of the happiest weekends that alll of us have had and yes including Jill who laughed her way thru the weekend as she never wanted to miss out on the fun and this I know very well as jill and I had the time of our life the first year we were together from front row at Elton John in Las Vegas or Stevie Wonder in LA doing I left my heart in San Francisco with Tony Bennett
And he covered all of Innervisions" and "talking book" an epic concert for the ages till 1 30 am a night we'd never forget and she just happened to surprise me for my Bday one I'll never forget
We had a wonderful time while living in maui
So many dinner parties coming and a routine that would make one maybe a bit envious most days we would do late afternoon beach outings as we loved our sunsets followed by happy hour and sushi at 5 palms on Friday nights it was karaoke at home night and sundays was massage day
Jill had a workout routine on her TRX that most men including her trainers could not handle Not Jill she took those on like an Olympic champion flying around her room like Peter Pan, impressive was an understatement and I know as her personal massage therapist that she was in the best shape of her life when she got diagnosed and then she had to give up the TRX and keep herself healthy in other ways.
Jill never wanted anyone to feel sorry for her and she has shown us a courage that few in this life could ever muster she really was the most extraordinary beautiful woman I have ever known and there are never enough superlatives that could be said about this woman but I can be proud to say I was the man whom got to spend the last few years with her and I was blessed with her presence and my life has been enriched even more
The world is a better place and thank you fior being an amazing wife and my soulmate
You'll always be in my heart !!
Love your husband
JB and JB forever !!

My mother was an amazing lady and best friend to me. She taught me so much, how to be a hard worker, a mom myself, how to keep pushing forward no matter what. Her laugh was contagious and she had a sense of humor like no other, even to the end. She inspired so many people around her. She was know to many as “ MaryJane” and she always gave back to her fan base in her business. She will be for ever loved, celabrated and missed by all, especially us kids and her grandkids . She has her wings and will always watch over us
