Jill was raised in California and Nebraska with her two siblings. An inquisitive child who loved to learn and play with numbers from a young age, she was rather adventurous. In 1948 she graduated early from Alhambra High School at the age of 16. It was in Alhambra California that she met and married her first husband, Harold Bracy, with whom she had and raised her three children. Jill loved being a mother, spending much of her time with her family on the Pacific Ocean, sailing and swimming.

In the 1970’s she earned her private pilot’s license and would fly all over the states participating in “Fly-ins”. In the late 1970s she moved to Washington State and became a bookkeeper for the Kitsap school district where she met and later married her 2nd husband, Raymond J Ondracek.

She was an active member of the Adventure of Faith Presbyterian Church in Port Orchard Washington since the 1980’s. This was where she loved to fellowship with other believers, minister to her community, sing in the choir and participate in bible studies.

Jill loved to be with people. She rarely met a stranger, and if she did, you were not a stranger for long. She had a smile and compassion for everyone she met, up until the very end of her life. She cherished the opportunity to know people and invest in their lives. To know her, was to see the love of Christ.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her parents in-love Alex Font Bracy and Virgie Hazel Allen Bracy whom she had a wonderful relationship with up until their passing; her sister Phyllis Corban, of Oregon, and her brother John “Jack” Beebe, of Florida.
