Jill Fay Oliver Risk, born on November 11, 1951 to James Edwin and Joyce Morris Oliver, passed from this life on February 27, 2023. During her lifetime, Jill did a wonderful job in showing her great love for God, her family, and her friends. But, Jill didn't stop there. She loved and cared about any and all who came within her reach. Jill was unpretentious. Just like an open book, people always knew exactly where they stood with Jill. She loved everybody and proved it with her generosity. Her time, love, and resources were available to both individuals and groups. Jill was willing to help anyone anyway she could. Jill had many interests. She liked traveling and seeing new places. She also enjoyed shopping in consignment stores. She was a stickler for good grammar and wanted everything to be precise. Even her notes and social media posts reflected her desire to communicate correctly. She owned a long line of pets with Lexi and Rocky, her last ones, being two of her favorites. Jill's faith was very important to her as she was a member of First United Methodist Church in Franklin, NC. Jill was a member of Moose Lodge #1985 in Sylva, NC, and Elks Lodge #1769 in Waynesville, NC, as well as being the secretary of her Homeowners Association. A big supporter of Men's Challenge of the Smokies, she always helped provide refreshments at their graduations. Jill is survived by her husband, John M. Risk; her son Richard Thomsen (Stephanie) of Port Orange, FL; her siblings, Brenda Weeks (Don) of Middleburg, FL, and Ted Oliver (Susan), Sherri Leggett (Jack), surrogate sister, Joann Miller, all of Tallahassee, FL, and four step-children, Carolyn, John, James, & Jennifer Risk. Six grandchildren, one great-grandchild, and a number of nieces and nephews also survive. She was preceded in death by her parents; her first husband and high school sweetheart, Joe Thomsen; her half-sister, Barbara Wilson and her half-brother, Paul Oliver. A Celebration of Life is scheduled for Sunday, March 12, at 4:00 pm at First United Methodist Church in Franklin, NC. Reverend David Beam and Reverend Vic Green will lead the celebration. Another service will be held at her final resting place at 2 pm on Monday, April 3, 2023 at Tallahassee Memory Gardens, 4037 N. Monroe St., Tallahassee, FL.
