Jill and I were college roommates while at OSU. She had a deeply gentle, loving, and spiritual nature. Kindness tempered with a sharp wit was her trademark. While I am saddened to learn of her passing, I know she’s dancing with angels. I loved Jill. Kristy
So very sorry to hear of Jill's passing. We've never met in person, but became good friends on social media. We were both dialysis patients and met through different support groups. She is missed.
Jill and I met when I worked at St. Martin's Episcopal Center in Fayetteville, Arkansas. This was in the late 1980's. We immediately connected and became fast friends. She taught me so much about being a good parent to my daughter, Chelsea, and was a source of support and love as I managed the ups and downs of being a single parent. We later worked together for St. Francis House which provided housing and resources to homeless families in the area. Jill looked for ways to serve God wherever and whenever she could, by helping those less fortunate. After my second marriage, Jill and I remained friends and I asked her to become the godmother to my son, Elijah. After she moved back to Miami, we lost touch for a bit but had recently reconnected through Facebook. Jill was a joy, and we shared many laughs. I can still hear her giggle in my mind. Her last message to me was to tell me how much I was loved! Jill always found a way to be a light in the dark to her friends even in her darkest days. I was so sad to hear of her passing, but I know she is in the loving arms of God and no longer suffering. She will be forever missed by me and so many whose lives she touched. Prayers ascending sweetie! I love you. Kelly Ecklund-Mathis
So very sorry to hear about Jill's passing. She was such a bright light at St Martin's in Fayetteville and the St Francis ministry to those in need through St Paul's in the 1980's. I truly loved reconnecting with her these past few years through a mutual friend from that era of our lives. Prayers ascending for all Jill's family and friends. May she rest in peace, and rise in glory. Kim+
Jill made an impact in my life as a kid! I was going thru a rough time at home during my teens and I hade meetings with her frequently. I always looked forward to them! She was a very beautiful woman inside and out! Sad to hear! Regards to the family!
Jill was my dear friend and I will miss her everyday. So thankful for the memories i got to make with my beautiful Jill.
Jill was one of my “younger friends.” She was a beautiful person. Even though I was not with her often, I will miss her. Nancy Gee
I feel as if I've lost another sister. Jill lived next door to my sister and brother-in-law for many years, and we grew to be close. What an outstanding human being. Our loss is heaven's gain!
For many yers Jill has been one of my “younger friends.” I have wished to be more like her ! I will remember her “with love !” Nancy Gee
I could go on forever with praises about the life of Jill Micka. I worked with her at ROCMND for a couple of years. She was funny, happy, and helpful to all...very knowledgeable about everything associated with her job and the care and compassion she provided to clients and coworkers was amazing. She carried that heartfelt compassion and love to our next joint adventure..working to establish the Animal Welfare Society (AWS) in Miami. Jill loved the animals and worked tirelessly to provide care and find loving homes for all of them. We have remained Facebook friends for years and our paths seemed to cross fairly regularly when we were both out and about in Miami. It was always an absolute joy to see her. I have always admired her strength in light of her health issues and her
daily struggles to be there for everybody and every living thing with a need that she could provide comfort and service to. God bless Jill. She will be a delight to all in Heaven and truly missed by those of us on earth that were blessed to have known her. Rest in peace Jill, my dear friend.
