Jill Lorene Brossard at the age of 53 dies of breast cancer


Jill Lorene BROSSARD Jill Lorene Brossard, born December 13th 1956 in Seattle Washington, passed away on December 11th at the age of 53. She died unexpectedly, surrounded by family, after a reoccurrence of breast cancer. Jill graduated from Roosevelt High School in Seattle and Green River CC in Auburn, where she received her degree in occupational therapy. Jill realized her passion for working with special needs children and was a dedicated advocate. Yet, once she had children of her own she left to focus on raising a family. She can be identified by any Mill Creek resident, as she was an avid walker-coffee cup and dog leashes in hand! Jill was a beautiful soul, always ready with her genuine and warm smile. She left a loving legacy to both her immediate and extended family. She is survived by her husband Jim, her daughters Carlee, Kimberly (T.J.), Laura, her son Daniel, her parents Jerrolee and Carl Ostrom, her sisters Carolee Morrison (John), Nancy Broderson and brother Tom Ostrom (Marilyn). Service to be held at Trinity Lutheran Church, 6215 196th St. SW, Lynnwood WA 98036 December 17th at 2:00 p.m. Remembrances can be made to www.trinitylutheran church.com or www.komen.org.
