What a very special woman! It was a privilege to have known Jo. We have spent many holiday dinners together through the years. She was an extraordinary wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, and friend. We are grateful her suffering is over, but will miss her gentle and sweet nature, and her awesome cooking and baking. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all through this difficult time. With love, Peggy's daughter, Terry and family
