Lisa,
I know we have chatted and e-mailed one another since the loss of your dear mother, JoJo, so you know how I felt about her. However, I will say it again. I'm glad I had the opportunity to know JoJo. She had had a warm spirit that drew me in immediately. Whenever I saw her, she always had a warm smile to greet me. I'm honored to have known her and her memory won't be forgotten.
Love you,
Crystal B.

I would like to express my heartfelt condolences on the passing of your mother Josephine. I always have fond memories of seeing her and hearing her voice when I was in Alameda. May God bless you and yours during these times.

My dear friend Lisa,
Even though you and I talk almost daily, I really wanted to write in your guest book in honor of a wonderful woman..your mom JoJo. She was such a kind hearted, caring person and loved by many including me. She will be greatly missed. I know just how much it meant to her that you talked with her every day, and would fly or drive here just to be with her for appointments. Those are the things that we do for those that we love when they can tell us "thank you" and you were that daughter to her. The bible says "to be abscent from the body is to be present with the Lord". She is home now safe and smiling in Gods arms. Just know she has not left you, but her spirit and memories will be with you always.
So to you Lisa, Tino (Mick) and the rest of your family I pray for your comfort and strength during this time and know that JoJo loved all of you and love is something that "never" dies, but lives in our hearts forever.
Gods Blessings,
Peaches

Dear Lisa,
Michelle James-Berner, fondly wrote me about your mother's passing away.
I am sadden to hear, your mom has passed on. Your family did a lovely job on writing heartfelt memories and informative obituary. Sharing her loving memories lifts and fills the spirit, you all have shown much pride in a life well lived.
What a thoughtful and beautiful person she was. She touched many people in her actions of care and will never be forgotten. You and your family are in my thoughts. My deepest sympathy and friendship to you and yours; Lisa, my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Muck love and respect during your time of sorrow.
