Rest in peace, Jo. My condolences go too her family. I hope your warm memories will give you peace during the hard times.
I was the computer lady at CMA, and Jo was Exec. Dir. for most of the time I worked there. She retired and then I left to go to nursing school. We were to see each other again regularly when she and Bob began volunteering at the hospital in which I worked.
I think an era in Nashville has ended with her passing.
Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her.
May she rest in peace.

They called us Jo's Girls. She was our mentor, our role model, our inspiration. None of us who worked at CMA during the Jo Walker-Meador years will ever forget her or be able to thank her enough for the experience, support, knowledge and opportunity she gave us. An enthusiastic ambassador for country music, she was a devoted champion of her beloved music around the globe. We will remember fondly that big, gregarious smile; that unmistakable Tennessee drawl; and her own special Southern charm which enchanted the thousands of people she met all over the world. Jo, you left your indelible mark on Nashville and country music and the CMA, and a lasting impact on the people who worked for you. We will miss you. You will always be our Jo. We love you.

Aunt Jo, you were such a sweet, kind, smart, funny amazing woman. Mike and I will miss you so much. It was always enjoyable sitting and chatting with you about your life. Our family will not be the same. I am happy you are with Bob, my grandfather and your siblings. Love always

Thinking about what an amazing life Jo Walker-Meador lead before the Lord called her home. I'm lucky to have been one of the folks who met her when she helped me as a SCORE mentor. Not having grown up in Nashville, I didn't recognize her name as a Nashville CMA icon. She was generous with her time and talent, even checking in with me a couple of years after...With deepest sympathy to her family and loved ones in their grief

I was fortunate to be able to have lunch with Jo last year when traveling thru Nashville. My wife was her secretary in the 60's and remained close for all these years. Michelle, haven't seen you for years but always talked about you with your mother - she loved you so much.

So sorry to hear about Jo. We met when I was doing the first Denning book in 1991. She really enjoyed talking about the family.

So dedicated a woman behind the scenes in the country music entertainment industry. What dedication to the arts and may it comfort all to know anyone that she will return to the days of her youth as promised at Job 33:25.
