| March 30, 2019 2:00 AM

Jill B. Church, 73, passed away on March 7, 2019, due to COPD and flu, at Kalispell Regional Medical Center.

Jill is survived by her daughters, Eva Church of Montana, Sherry Lizama, Charity Gustine and January Gens of the Pacific Northwest, eight grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by parents Harold and Ellen VanDyke, ex-husband Marion Church, grandson Harvey Maze III, and great-granddaughter Rhylee Benton.

Jill loved drawing, painting, needlework and knitting, but most of all she loved people and people loved her.

She passed surrounded by daughters, knowing she was loved and will be sorely missed by all who knew her.

No funeral services are arranged, but for family and friends there will be a celebration of her life at a later date. Until then, we can all celebrate her by loving and accepting each other, which was so very important to Jill.
