Obituary – Jill (Blevins) Haynes



Jill Lynne Hanes, a former exhibitor and the daughter of TJ and Georgia Blevins, passed away September 28, leaving her husband Dr. Chris Hanes, sons Josh and Caleb, their spouses and six grandchildren, as well as her brother Chris and sister, Mia.

Raymond and Lillian Shively, James Nichols, and Jane and Hoppy Bennett were among her trainers as a junior exhibitor when she showed the likes of Ultra Violet, Kane County, Great Gusto, Harshmont’s Sugar Pop, Sugar and Spice, and Worthy Warrior.

“I had Kane Country and Great Gusto for them,” said James Nichols. “She was a good rider that did really well.”
