Jill Elizabeth Hardy

Jill Elizabeth Hardy, 55, of Dawsonville passed away suddenly Friday January 16, 2015.

Born March 24, 1959 in Atlanta, GA to the late James H. and Marjorie D. Hardy, Jill grew up in Sandy Springs, GA and moved towards North Georgia as an adult to enjoy her horses in the countryside of Forsyth and Dawson Counties. A true animal lover, she never was without dogs, rabbits, or any animal that needed shelter, food, and care. Jill also had a love of music and a talent to play acoustic guitar. She passed that love and talent to her two sons. She was of the Christian faith and was also preceded in death by her brother, James H. Hardy, Jr.

Surviving are her sons, Charles Davis Lloyd and Clayton Lloyd; grandson, Otis Lloyd; sister and brother in law, Joan H. and Hal Nissley; nephews, Evan Nissley (Tiffany), Adam and Dylan Nissley; niece, Shannon H. Shelton (Jason, Hannah, Joshua, Jordan). Jill is also survived by her beloved fiancé, Russell Westbrooks; his children, Jill Westbrooks Hall (Art), and Jacob Westbrooks; and granddaughter, Stormy Hall.

A private service will be held at a later date.
