Jill Louise Marsh, 56

Jill Marsh, 56, passed peacefully, with her daughters and mother by her side on March 2, 2013, shortly after sunrise at Kalispell Regional Medical Center.

A native to the Flathead Valley, Jill was born June 5, 1956, to Max and Shirley Heil in Kalispell, where she spent her life.

Jill loved to spend time with her family and friends, especially her grandchildren, which brought her great happiness. She loved taking drives with her husband Terry Marsh, camping, pike fishing, houseplants, and animals. She enjoyed the company of her many friends, especially visiting on a warm, sunny day, as summer was her favorite season.

Jill’s spunky spirit will be truly missed by all who knew and loved her. What a woman!

Jill was preceded in death by her father, Max Heil; grandparents, Frieda and Lyle Hummel, and Paul and Fern Heil; mother-in-law, Lois Marsh; cousins, Steve Hummel and Roy Rothrock; and aunts, Laurel Powell and Marilyn Minikus.

She is survived by her husband, Terry Marsh, and daughters, Kendra and Tim McAnally, and Kelly and Mack Dittmer, all of the Flathead Valley; grandchildren, Mattison, Ashton and Sophie McAnally, and Eli and Payden Dittmer; mother, Shirley Heil; sister, Mickey Heil; brother, Ron Heil; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.

She will be greatly missed and forever in our hearts. She is with us all.

Cremation has taken place and there will be a celebration of life this summer.
