Reamer (Sandwick), Jill R. (aka: Toots, Eagle-Eyes, Jean-Denim), 66, of Blaine, MN, joined those who went before her on November 29th, 2025; quietly surrounded by loved ones after a hard-fought four-year battle with endometrial cancer.
Born July 10th, 1959. Jill was the eternal caregiver of the family, assisting other family members through a myriad of health challenges themselves. Strong-willed and tough beyond words, she was a pillar of love in their lives, someone who was always there to support no matter the difficulty. In the end, she embraced allowing others to take care of her, repaying the gift and receiving the skill she so loving instilled in them.
She has touched the lives of so many people throughout her lifetime. Jill was a night owl, just getting started after midnight, always up for a long conservation or telling stories into the wee morning hours. She loved going to Fort Deamous to camp, the last to leave the campfire at night. She was a talented artist, crocheting many beautiful projects. She loved to dance. She was an avid reader and would multi-task reading and watching tv. She was a hard worker, when she set her mind on something, she would make it happen. She always dove right in. After spending most of her life raising her amazing children and grandchildren, she took pleasure in her role in food services at the public school, giving back to the kids.
Jill is survived by her husband Timothy T. Reamer. Daughters: Jennifer Reamer and Amanda Fredrickson. Son in law, Daniel Fredrickson. Starrsha Wolff. Siblings: James Sandwick & Jackie & Bob Northrop. Grandchildren: Miranda, Nick, Zack, Caiden, Arabelle, Connor, Kelsey. She is preceded in death by her children Nick, Michelle and parents Betty & Jack Sandwick.
Services will be held at Peace Lutheran Church (20 Northdale Blvd, Coon Rapids, MN 55448) on Wednesday December 10th. Visitation will be at 10am, the service will be at 11am, with a luncheon for all immediately after at the Church. In lieu of flowers or memorials, the family kindly requests any donations be made to Children’s Minnesota (https://www.childrensmn.org/).
