Love & support for Jill (Schleff) & Brad Merriman

Many in the community know Jill (Schleff) Merriman, and have been touched in some way by her love, compassion and caring nature. She has been a paraprofessional in the Fremont School District for 16 years, caring deeply for some of the youngest children in the district, and was an active member of the Mundelein community as she raised her family here. Following her divorce, Jill and Brad met at church and were married 9 years ago. Both felt blessed to have found each other later in life, and shared a wonderful life, along with Jill's children, Katie and Mark Schleff, and their dogs. Sadly, Brad's health took a turn for the worse within the last year, and he passed away on March 11, 2023. We are raising money to help with funeral and medical expenses, along with general living expenses for Jill as she copes with this unexpected loss. Thank you in advance for giving back to this woman who has given so much to all of us.
