Working together at Boces, Mary Jo expressed qualities of a hard worker, concerned with helping challenging students achieve to the best of their ability. Mary Jo met each day with a warm, happy smile, kind and caring disposition.. The students were drawn to her endearing nature.
I am sad to learn of her passing and extend heartfelt thoughts and prayers to family and friends.

Our deepest condolences to Tony and the entire family! Maryjo was taken from us far too soon! Her smile and cheerful greetings will truly be missed. Never did I see her without that beautiful smile on her face and, oh that laugh!!!! It´s a Caprio trait for sure. She will always be remembered! Love to all!
