What a priviledge to have met and known Jill and Jerry as our lovely kind, smiley neighbours.

Fond memories of chats over the fence with Jill and her infectious smile, sense of humour, care, wise words, honesty, fun spirit.

Lovely to have Jill and Jerry as our neighbours. Some memorable memories since we became neighbours 6 years ago.

Jerry loved sitting in the garden listening to great music on a sunny day.

Jill enjoyed her garden, puzzle books, mag/paper, lots of cups of tea, skittles, having a chat and a laugh.

Won't forget our chats. Your kindness and laughter.

Never forget when the whole of our gazebo got blown into your garden lol. When you offered to look after our dog Lucy. We thought you'd have a cup of tea, let lucy out and you'd sit in the garden or our lounge... didn't realise you'd sit at the top of our staircase for a few hours lol to chat with lucy who was in our bed lol. Bless you Jill. xXx

Miss you Jill. You are safe at peace now with Jerry and your loved ones passed.

Thankful for you. God bless.

Hannah.H. and family xx
