Jillian Ruth Brewis

Jill passed away peacefully at age 86 on January 10th. Always great with words, she enjoyed a long, successful, and varied career as a newspaper columnist and food writer, eventually serving as President of the Guild of Food Writers.
Sister to John, Judy, Jane, Dina, Rod and Bill, mother to Alex, James and Rob and grandmother to Hugo, Anton, Olivia, Marni, Viggo, Freddie, Noel, Luke and Rupert, she always had an open heart and home for so many who will miss her sharp wit and generous hospitality. She was blessed to be loved by her late husbands Andrew and Ernesto.
A memorial service will be held on 20th January at 10 a.m. in the All Saints Chapel at the Purewa Cemetery, 100 St Johns Road, Auckland, followed by refreshments.
