Jillian was a Junior at Johnston High School. She loved music and art. Her hopes was one day to become a fashion designer but she was interested in interior and graphic design as well. Jill loved animals, her family and friends. She was a person who could bring calm into a storm. If there was an escalation argument happening, Jill was always there to chill the room. She was very laid back and had a hippie vibe. She thought she was born in the wrong decade.

Jill was diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in March of 2022. While she was in process of meeting with specialists and hopeful there would be a plan of action to help protect her, she suffered a sudden cardiac arrest in April. Jillian collapsed on her bedroom floor and passed away immediately while her favorite David Bowie played in the background.
