My thoughts and Prayers are with your family. My Mom is a bus driver and so I grew up at the buslot. She was MamaJo to me :-) It breaks my heart to know that she is no longer physically with us. But in spirit and all around, I know she is watching over all of us. I'm so very happy to have known MamaJo and it makes me smile to know that I got to see her one last time and she got to meet my son. That means the world to me. My love is with your family during these rough times.

I knew Jo in the early 40s when she and her family lived off Red Lane in Salem, VA. I have many pictures of Jo, Gale and myself when we played together. She was always a good natured and kind person. Jo's life was a "life well lived" and my love and sympathy go out to her family in their time of loss.

My family and I can't tell you enough how sorry we are for your loss. Growing up Jo was always great to me and even as an adult always enjoyed stopping by and talking with her. She will truly be missed. If there is anything that the family needs, please let us know.
