I am so saddened by Mary Jo's passing. I graduated with her from NE high School....... she was a sweetheart. She accomplished so much in her lifetime, I'm so proud of her, and honored to have known her. May memories bring you peace.

My heart breaks for you, Sean, for your mom's brothers and their families, and for all of us who loved Mary Jo. What a good person and a good friend. We shared alot together both growing up and then again in the late 70's when we both became "single with children" and I shared my home with Mary Jo and Sean. Her crazy infectious laugh will always be there for me. We loved to open a bottle of wine and listen to goofy old 45s like "Ape Call" by Nervous Norvus. I will miss her. Charyl(Rivett) Heitman
