Jo was a bright light in my life! She supported our pro-life efforts and often wrote me cards encouraging us to continue! She would also email-sometimes getting my email address confused with her niece! We had some chuckles many times over that.

May Perpetual Light shine upon Jo. And May God grant comfort and peace to all who loved her. Well done, good and faithful servant! You will be missed.
