Jill Rebecca Rosenberry

March 20, 2003 – November 30, 2022

Jill Rebecca Rosenberry, 19, of Delaware, Ohio passed away peacefully at her home alongside her father on Wednesday, November 30, 2022. Jill fought a valiant battle against malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor cancer over the last 18 months and survived a diagnosis of T-cell lymphoma cancer twice at the age of 4 ½ and 6 years old. She was a true Warrior Princess that fought tenaciously her entire life with grace and dignity.

She was born March 20, 2003 in Raleigh, North Carolina and was a Olentangy High School graduate of 2021 where she graduated with honors. Jill was very active in high school as a member of the swim and track and field teams. She was on the Yearbook committee and many other clubs that she enjoyed with her friends. In the summers, she was a lifeguard at Zoombezi Bay Water Park and a volunteer at the Worthington Food Bank. Jill attended New Destiny Worship Center in Marysville where she enjoyed worship and fellowship with the youth church group.

She will be remembered for getting the most out of every day of her life whether it was surfing in California, or most recently skydiving just two months ago. Jill was well known for her baking prowess and was always in the kitchen making cheesecakes, cookies, pies and experimenting with new recipes. She loved her dogs, Amos and Snuggles and enjoyed riding horses throughout her childhood.

Jill’s happy place was Disney World. She loved everything Disney and looked forward to the annual family trips to Florida to see her favorite character Stitch.

Jill attended the University of Alabama and was a business major until she had to withdraw mid-way through the fall semester of 2021 due to her diagnosis. She loved being a student there and you could hear her say, “Roll Tide Roll”.

Jill will be missed by her loving father, James W. Rosenberry, mother, Brenda L Rosenberry (deceased), brother, James W. Rosenberry Jr, grandmother, Loel Rosenberry, grandfather, James R. Rosenberry (deceased), her dogs Amos and Snuggles and many relatives and friends.

Family will receive friends Tuesday, December 13, 2022 from 9:30a.m. until the time of the funeral service at 11:00 a.m. at Calvary Apostolic Church, 2551 West Schrock Rd, Westerville, Ohio 43081. Pastor Jason Rasor, Pastor Jimmy Stark and Bishop James Stark officiating. Interment to follow at Kingwood Memorial Park.
