Jonell was a dear friend of mine at BU. We moved into our very first apartment together with Janice and Sally. Of the four of us, Jonell was the only one who knew how to cook. She was so organized; she was like our apt. manager. She created a schedule for all of us unmanageable roomies. We all loved her sweet presence, huge smile, big brown eyes, and laughter. She left an indelible beautiful memory in our hearts.

Randy, Gary and Susy:
I knew JoNell at Baylor and went home with her to Lubbock on one occasion. She was a very special person in my life. I will always remember the beauty of her incredibly big eyes that could see right through you into your heart.
You have my heartfelt sympathy.
