I am so sorry to learn about Jo's passing....She was a co-worker and dear friend. We worked at State Fidelity (later Mid-America Federal/NBD/Fifth-Third) together for many years. She was an amazing person whom I had so much respect and admiration...just a amazing human being. As a co-worker she was a dedicated employee....who gave 150% of herself to whatever task she was given and always excelled. There are a very few women in my lifetime that I have held in such high esteem, and Jo was one of them. She also made an amazing breakfast casserole. Loved her..... Glenna Lemonds
