I’ve been working on a series of these Paris portraits over the past maybe three years and I came upon this one the other day in my wanderings in the Marais. So fitting that I should have discovered this in front of the @maisonproustofficial. And when I went to tag them I saw that they were followed by the very much missed @jillgirling who would have loved this photo, I am so sure.

Jill Girling’s time ended far too soon.
She was a powerhouse, a fiercely strong woman, a beautiful artist, a teacher of infinite wisdom, an absolute fucking badass, and, most important, a most wonderful, wonderful friend.

At work, she created magical worlds and touched the hearts and souls of so many people around the globe. She took this group of kids to Paris and led us on a three-year expedition of fantastical wonder and joy. I will be forever grateful.
Outside of work, she was kind, caring, nurturing, and hilariously devilish - anyone would feel safe being in her presence. I will be forever grateful.

I will miss her dearly; another flower in the basket of the maker.
One love, Jilly. 🤍

A week ago today we lost this legend, @jillgirling. I’ve known Jill since I was a literal child. Our families were good friends. We spent countless holidays together where she’d never fail to show up with some cool friend and tell incredible stories that blew my young mind: about her travels to Asia; or shit she and her siblings got up to as kids; or her adventures in the film industry. She was the epitome of cool girl: vibrant, interesting, curious, passionate, generous. Never not Jill.

When I moved downtown after high school, we lived close to each other in Little Italy. She had an amazing loft on College St that she dubbed ‘The Hamptons - and, if you worked in the film industry in Toronto between the early aughts and 2013, chances are you went to a wrap party there. She hosted my 30th birthday - saving me from bad decisions at 1AM when I tried to open a warm bottle of Veuve and she was like, “No. I’m not gonna let you do this.”

When I started my career as a TV writer, she was transitioning out of AD’ing and into writing & producing. Launching our careers at the same time we got to cheer each other on, read each other’s scripts, share advice and commiserate as we both struggled to get our breaks…

What a joy it was to watch her crush that dream, become a Showrunner, make beautiful television and move to Paris where she found her Prince Charming in the wonderful Bash. What a life lesson in manifesting your destiny.

When I introduced Jason to my parents, she was there as a buffer as my Dad gave Jason the gears (alongside a slightly less helpful Kevi). When we got married, she was a part of our ceremony and stood alongside us on the beach. When I moved to New York, she and Joey came to visit. When I moved to LA she made sure to introduce me to all her friends, supporting me however she could. Always signing off every call, email or interaction with some version of ‘love ya man’.

How lucky am I that I got to have a relationship with her through so many chapters of our lives. How lucky am I that I got to be adult friends with the ‘cool girl’ I’ve idolized forever. How lucky am I to have been her friend. (See comments to read the rest)

Jill (Gillian) Girling took this picture of me. We were dressed the same. It was our first big concert at the CNE in Toronto. I met Jill in grade 8. She saw me and wanted to be my friend! Pulled me out of my shell. Became an ally. We were weird kids. She made it ok to be what we were. We loved SNL. That is what we wanted to do---be on SNL. At age 13! We practiced being "Joliet" Jake & Elwood as the Blues Brothers for a talent show! Our beloved teacher David Pihach helped us!! Jill is so much to me--so much to so many. It is devastating that she is gone. I spent the last 3 weeks of her mortal life beside her. What an honour. But she is only gone from this physical life we know---in time she will be everywhere and most certainly forever in my heart. I love you Jill. Peace

Dear Jill, I thought this grief would show up differently. As a need to be with people, mostly, filling the void you leave. But I’m okay with that void, it is as large as your presence and as beautiful as your soul. It is creative, it is emotional, it is spiritual. It is how I continue to speak to you.
Good Grief, Girling. Good Grief.

@nectarwoode‘s healing lyrics came at a perfect timing 🕯️
