Mary Jo was a wonderful neighbor. I enjoyed talking with her when we were out doing yard work. We shared the love of gardening and pretty flowers. I also liked her big black kittiie, I was always amazed how well the cat listened to her. If he started to creep away she would just say you get back here and it would! She loved her cats!
I was blessed to have her as a neighbor, will miss her.
