The friends of Jean Hill are reaching out to invite you to consider making a contribution toward a special project that will honor her memory. Jean, a beloved community leader and friend of Mequon and Thiensville, made a lasting impact on Rotary Park and many other Mequon and Thiensville initiatives.
We all remember Jean for being behind the camera at events all over town. To Jean, taking pictures was the reward for all the pre-work she contributed to make events happen. She once said, “I love taking pictures because then I get to see everyone.” For Jean, it was about relationships which she nurtured for over 50 years of volunteering.
A charter member of the MT Sunrise Rotary Club, Jean played a key role in building the club, organizing fundraisers, bringing people together, and worked on community projects such as the development of the Rotary RiverWalk in Thiensville. Beyond Rotary, Jean volunteered for Family Fun Before the 4th, she was a founding member of Gathering on the Green, and active with Jonathan Clark House.

After retiring, she continued to give so much of her time and talents to the Mequon-Thiensville Chamber of Commerce (MTCC). Beginning as a board member, Jean ascended to the role of president in 1996. MTCC honored Jean’s spirit of volunteerism with the Citizen of the Year Award. In addition, the Thiensville Branch of Ozaukee Bank earned the MTCC Business of the Year award while Jean was at the helm.
To honor Jean’s incredible legacy, we are raising funds for a commemorative bench to be placed in the All-User Playground at Rotary Park on Highland Road in Mequon to serve as a lasting tribute to her contributions and provide a peaceful space for reflection for those who visit the park.
Contributions made to the Thiensville-Mequon Rotary Foundation, Inc. for this project are tax deductible. Any amount you are able to give will go directly toward the purchase and installation of the bench. Checks may be made payable to: TM Rotary Foundation, Inc. All-User Park, In the Memo: Jean Hill Memorial Fund, PO Box 73, Mequon, WI 53092.
