Without Jovanna's annual trip to San Francisco, the city may have to shut down. Being with Jovanna was like opening your first bottle of champagne -- so much fun, accompanied by that laugh. Yassou, patriota -- se filo sta matia sou.

Bill, Olivia & I hanging out at Jo's favorite hotel - The Standard
Your loving care, your dry sense of humor and laughter, your shoulder to lean on, your signature style... I will always remember those star earrings. Your devotion to your work with Victor. Enjoying life and it's simple pleasures... spending great times with good friends and family. This is how I will always remember you Jo. You're one amazing lady and these cherished memories will live on!

Jovanna was such a joy to spend time with no matter what we did. I shall miss dinners with her and our past outings at Arlington. She leaves a void with all of her friends but wonderful memories. For every joy that passes leaves something beautiful.

A dear old friend whom I fondly remember and whose friendship I still cherish. Her magnetic personality, her sparkling smile and her ability to take a real interest in the people she befriended will never be forgotten.

Jovanna and I had the best time pulling onto Oak Street one afternoon, having just left Victor's studio and securing a god-like metered parking spot.
She is a stylish sage.
Life and love (especially for Victor)
Lives in our heart, always
My condolence to your family - Jovanna is exceptional

Jovanna was such a creative and lovely person. She was always ready with a smile and was a very kind and giving person. I am glad to have known her and have so many good memories of her. She will be missed.
