19 Kids and Counting alum Jill Duggar Dillard attended the funeral of close friend - PassionForSavings.com founder Heather Schisler - at Cross Church in Springdale, AR last Friday.
'Cannot believe she's gone,' the 32-year-old Arkansas native - who boasts 2.5M social media followers - wrote via Instastory.
'The service and the reception were so beautiful [in] honoring who Heather was and [it] totally had the all-in Heather flare!'
Heather - whom Jill called 'the sweetest' - tragically died, age 39, on July 30 'after a hard-fought battle' with stage 4 metastatic cancer which spread to her lungs and liver.
'We have [known] each other for years and were in the same small group at church for several years,' Dillard wrote after her death.

'We were pregnant together last year and had our babes just a couple weeks apart. Please join us in praying for their entire family.'
Schisler is survived by her husband of 17 years, Jonathan Schisler, and their four children - Zachary, Hailey, Madden, and Breelyn.
Last month, the Counting On alum finished recording the audio version of her second book Counting the Cost, which she co-wrote with author Craig Borlase and her husband of nine years, Derick Dillard.
Jill's 288-page tell-all - hitting shelves September 12 - is about how she found the courage to stop ignoring the red flags and secrets surrounding her famous family and detail what really happened behind the scenes.
TLC canceled the reality show 19 Kids and Counting in 2015 after the Duggars' eldest son Josh confessed to 'improperly touching' five minors (including two of his sisters).
In 2015, Dillard confessed on The Kelly File that her parents - former Republican congressman Jim Bob Duggar and housemaker Michelle Duggar - told her she was one of the two sisters Josh had molested as a teen while asleep.
The homeschooled mother-of-three previously spoke about the 57-year-old patriarch's close ties to Christian fundamentalist group the Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP) in Amazon four-episode docuseries called Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets.
Among its many strict teachings, IBLP dictates that men be the head of their households and that women generally are not to have power or be involved in much beyond child-rearing and other domestic duties.

On June 1, Jim Bob and Michelle released an official statement blasting the 'derogatory and sensationalized' docuseries and said the creators had 'ill intentions hurting people we love.'
'We have always believed that the best chance to repair damaged relationships, or to reconcile differences, is through love in a private setting,' the married couple of 38 years wrote on the Duggar Family website.
'We love every member of our family and will continue to do all we can to have a good relationship with each one. Through both the triumphs and the trials we have clung to our faith all the more and discovered that through the love and grace of Jesus, we find strength, comfort, and purpose.'
