Cincinnati

Jamie Gilligan of Cincinnati, Ohio, passed away on December 21, 2024, leaving behind a legacy of love and kindness. An incredibly giving woman, Jamie devoted her life to uplifting those around her, both personally and professionally.

Jamie was a cherished mother to James, Mary, and Drew, and a beloved mother-in-law to Megan Gilligan, Daniel Jones and Ginger Jackson. She embraced the role of grandmother with joy, nurturing her grandchildren: Chase, Matthew, Celeste, Riley, Zachery, Isaac, Aubrey, Ezra, Mason, and Adalynn, Her heart was truly full in their presence, and her love knew no bounds.

As a sister to Luann, Tim, and Jeff White, Jamie shared a bond that brought laughter and support throughout their lives. Her ability to care for others shined brightly in her work in social services, where she tirelessly fought to ensure that everyone she encountered felt seen and supported. Jamie's dedication to helping others reflected her belief that everyone deserved compassion and understanding.

However, Jamie's greatest achievement was her family. Her smile had the power to light up any room and it was through her unwavering love that she created a true home for those she adored. The warmth of her laughter, the joy of shared meals, and the richness of stories told will forever echo in the hearts of her loved ones.
