So sorry to see of Jo´s passing. Such a lovely sense of humor she had. We would invite her to our Thanksgiving open house every year and she would call to say she couldn´t come. Truth be told, we kept doing it every year just to get a chance to chat. Life gets so distracting. Sending healing prayers and hugs to the family.

Condolences to Greg and your family. Your mother was a kind lady! I always enjoyed her at CL and later running into her around town. We would always stop and talk. She always had a pleasant word.

I am so sorry to learn of Jo's passing. She was a friend of my Aunt Nadine Snow and for many years we went to the Symphony together and then out for a beverage afterwards. She always had a smile on her face. Sending sincere my sympathy to the family.
