Our deepest condolences to the gift shop community, family and friends in Lafayette, Louisiana after the tragic movie theater shooting on 7/23 claimed the life of this extraordinary shop owner and artist.
Jillian E. Johnson (1982-2015). #repost from @redarrowworkshop: Thank you all for the many, many wonderful words and memories you have shared with us. It helps us to know that you all respected and loved her, either through her work or through your time with her.
She truly loved this community and it’s clear the community loved her back.
Your outpouring of support – through your many, many posts on social media to the flowers that showed up at our home and businesses – has been a bright light during a truly dark time. Please know that we have followed them all closely. They have meant so much to us.

And thank you for respecting our privacy during this time. We hope to finalize funeral arrangements today so we should have more information for you all soon.
