Jill Diane Perez, known affectionately as Jill to her friends and family, passed away peacefully on November 23, 2024, at her home in Plant City, Florida. Born on June 24, 1969, in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Jill's warmth and kindness touched the lives of all who knew her.
Jill's life was one marked by love and compassion. She was a beacon of light and joy to her husband, John Perez, with whom she shared six wonderful years of marriage. Her unwavering love and devotion to her family were evident in every aspect of her life. She was a cherished daughter to Judy Hawley and James D. Hawley, and a beloved sister to Jamie Chase and Teddy Hawley. Her presence was a comfort and a source of strength to her family, and she will be deeply missed.
A woman of many passions, Jill found solace and joy in the simple pleasures of life. She was an avid fan of "Pride and Prejudice," finding time to revisit the classic tale often, and her love for animals was unparalleled. Jill's kindness extended to all creatures, great and small, and her gentle spirit was reflected in her care for them.
Jill's legacy is one of love and kindness. Those who knew her would describe her as nothing less than loving and kind, a testament to the way she lived her life and the impact she had on others. Her memory will live on in the hearts of those she loved and those who loved her.
As we bid farewell to Jill, we celebrate a life well-lived, full of love, kindness, and cherished moments. Her spirit will continue to inspire and guide us, and her memory will forever be a treasured part of our lives.
Services will be held privately by the family.
