Almost four years later and I still think of her every Friday night. She would always call me and ask where John and I went for dinner since Friday was our "date night". I am so happy to know she asked Jesus to be her Saviour and she is rejoicing in her Heavenly Home today. Miss you, Joe!!

My condolences to and prayers for BJ's family.
What I remember most about BJ is her ability to understand my humor and how we could rib each other with pure enjoyment. While most never got my sarcasm BJ always did. I remember visiting her home for the first time at Christmas and learning the hard way that presents can be opened as soon as it's legally Christmas day. It was a topic of ribbing from then on.
Everyone will miss her spunkiness.

I am so sorry for your loss. Please let me know if there is anything at all that we can do. Know that you are in our hearts and prayers. Betty Jo (Magoo) will be deeply missed. She was a very special lady. I can imagine the reunion she had with my mom and my aunts and uncles as well as her parents and brother and sister-in-law.

Our hearts are broken but we all know she's resting easy. Besides I'm sure she'll tell them how it should be done.

Much love to my family in Idaho. Great memories of my Aunt BJ and my visits out there with my dad. I still remember her cooking that yummy red sop and biscuits.
