To Jo's Family
You have our sympathy and prayers. Jo was one of the first owners we met after purchasing our unit at Sunset in 2006. She was a such a kind and loving person. We enjoyed her company at the pool over the years. She was so proud of her family and your accomplishments. We will miss her. May God comfort all of you.
Sincerely,
Tim and Kathy Baker

Dear Balek family,
We are so incredibly sorry for your loss. Jo was the sweetest woman, and I loved hearing her talk about her family and her grandchildren. She always made me laugh, and she was so kind. May God bless you during this incredibly difficult time. Thank you for allowing us to help care for Jo. She will be missed.
With deepest sympathy,

Dear Rosalie, Greg, Michael and all of your extended families: I was saddened to hear about the loss of my Mom's "dear cousin Jo from St. Louis". I too have very fond memories of her & Uncle Ray & the good times we spent together in St. Louis (and Detroit) with all of you so many, many years ago. Keeping only good thoughts for all of you. With love & most sincerely, your cousin Cathy Corona Melody, (daughter of Josephine & Richard Corona).

One more thing, Mrs. B ... when you hug Mr. B, please slide a well-chewed cigar butt in his jacket pocket for me. He'll know it's from me.
