Jo was one of my Osceola, Arkansas friends and I am so happy to know that she lived life to the fullest and was loved by so many.

My truly dearest friend. She was exceptional. She prayed me through the toughest times of my life. I love her and I am looking so forward to being reunited with her to celebrate heaven and especially the Lord. I also want to express my love for Mike as well. He gave her great comfort in his recovery and I know he is going to miss her dearly. Don and love you both.

Heaven has gained a very special sweet lady. I will miss your kind words and hugs Mrs. Crenshaw. Will miss you dearly! Mr Crenshaw you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Jo was one of a kind - always a smiling face, always a good word for everyone, always giving and needing hugs. Her knowledge of The Word could humble anyone and a prayer warrior unmatched. Guaranteed she's already dancing on the streets of Heaven. We will miss you, Jo! Love, Kathy and Bob Ware

Watching Mrs. Crenshaw dance for joy down the aisle after church service praising our Lord warmed my heart and truly endeared her to me. She was so precious.
