Dear Mark Allan Markka, I'm so lost for words, It's so hard to find words about Jo. One of the most beautiful women I have ever met. 40 years ago I met Jo and what a great lady. So loving to her family and friends. There was nobody that would open her heat for you. She was such a true friend. All the great times we had will live in my heart for ever. When I was sick Jo was right there to help. There is no body on this great earth like Jo. She will be a very big lost to all of us. Her smile would light up a room. The great times at all the softball games and out on Big Cedar Lake. I pray for the Farrington family to get through this sad time. You sure will be miss Jo. God bless Mark and Family. I love you all. I will toast one for you Jo RIP my great friend. GOD BLESS Scott Harrison Fort Myers Florida.
