I just now learned of Jo's death. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. I had the pleasure of purchasing the home where Jo lived as a teenager in Milton and we shed a little tear together when I moved to Charleston. Jo added so much to the town and I will be forever grateful for her friendship.

Dear David and Mr. Wallace,
I was so sorry to hear of Jo's passing. She was a great lady, she will be missed. I always enjoyed closings when she was involved in the transaction. May she rest in peace. ~ Sean Fallon

I regret greatly Jo's passing. I have fond memories of her during her competitive days in figure skating and especially her Gold Pair Test with Tommy Mcinnis

I can't believe that Jo has left us. And I find it hard to think of her as "resting in peace"..she is probably already organizing something "up there"! God bless you, Jo!
And my heartfelt sympathy to Jack and Alfred and David...and all who miss her!

I will never forget Milton's best real estate agent. she and I worked together for three years at Jack Conway R/E, she was my favorite person there. Wll never forget the picrures she showed us when she was a professional ice skater in her younger years. My heart goes out to you Jack, she was the best plus she had a great sense of humor. Heaven knows her now.
