Jill Annette Enzler of Spokane is with her father in Heaven after a long, courageous and valiant battle to overcome ovarian cancer.

Jill was born in Moses Lake May 17, 1966. She was a graduate of Moses Lake High School and Eastern Washington University. She was married in 1983 to Duane Zamora and was blessed with a daughter, Kayloni Nichelle.

Survivors are her daughter Kayloni Bonner (Paul) and granddaughters Sienna and Selah Bonner of Spokane; parents Ralph and Jeanette Enzler of Moses Lake; brothers Jeff Enzler (Kamelia) of Bellevue, Jon Enzler (Tracey) of Vancouver and Larry Enzler (Margie) of Post Falls, Idaho; sister Carol Tusberg (David) of Moses Lake. Also surviving nieces and nephews are Shayla Enzler of Vancouver, Trisha Truett-Cole of Moses Lake and Taylor Truett of Seattle. Also her maternal grandmother June Ehlert of Moses Lake and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

Preceding her in death are her paternal grandparents Art and Gertrude Enzler; maternal grandfather Edward Ehlert; brother Jerald R. Enzler; and favored cousins Jamison DeHerrera and Mark Wilcock.

Varied interests kept her life in a whirlwind of activities including network marketing of nutritional vitamins and graduating from Dale Carnegie classes. Her entrepreneur skills and magnetic charisma helped her develop and promote successful ideas for her personal and business endeavors. She made and vended awesome oil candles and other crafts at bazaars. She was also employed in the designing and marketing of dried floral decor items before her illness.

She was a member of Spokane Valley Vineyard Church. She leaves many, many close friends. One wish she expressed was not to have a gloomy, sad memorial, but to celebrate her good life. Her Christian faith and her day-to-day, positive outlook helped her elevate her triumphs and diminish her defeats. Jill's extended battle with cancer began in March 2002 and ended July 11.

The greatest treasures of Jill's heart will remain to be her sweet granddaughters, yet she knew "beyond the sky" is a better life. She is now near God and in a beautiful, peaceful place.

Celebration of life will take place at 2 p.m. Saturday, July 22 at New Hope Christian Center, 1108 N. Argonne Road, Spokane Valley, Wash.

In lieu of flowers, Jill's family suggests donations may be given to Life Services of Spokane, 2659 N. Ash St., Spokane, WA 99205-3606. Jill was a volunteer crisis pregnancy counselor there and believed in the importance of this needed organization.
