Jo was such a special lady. I worked with her for several years atCarsons and we had such fun together.

Jo was a dear friend, valued colleague, cherished neighbor, and 9:00 Mass Buddy. She was a wonderful and deeply-religious person. Her marriage to Pat was an inspiration. I m a better person due to my relationship with Jo. May God bless her and all who mourn her passing.
Jo and Pat are the best and dearest friends and neighbors Perry and I have ever had. Jo always carried a lovely smile and was deeply grounded in her Catholic faith. Our bond became so deeply rooted in God, and our friendship never to be broken in time or distance. We became 'sisters' from another mother. Jo definitely was and always will be the sweetest friend and supporter I (we) have ever experienced. She and Pat will always be an inspiration to us.
Rest In Peace, Jo and God’s blessings on her family who will miss her dearly.
Jo was always so kind and wanted to share her clothes when she no longer could wear her size 4s. She was a real jewel!!!!
Jo was a very special lady. At Southport High School she helped those students who most needed her one-on-one assistance and attention. Jo was patient, kind and giving in all aspects of her life. She will be missed.
Such a delicate woman with an endearing smile. Knowing her was a privilege. At all times, she was all together and always a lady. Enjoy your new surroundings…..God has been waiting for you.

Jo was a very good friend and associate of mine during my years at Parisian’s DT. I couldn’t have asked for a harder more energetic worker. She was always there to help me with a problem or just someone I could talk to. She was a joy to be around. Heaven has a glorious new angel!
My sincere sympathy and prayers to Pat and the family on the passing of Jo. I will miss her smile and
seeing her at daily Mass. We bonded years back when we both lost a sister to cancer about six months apart. She was so understanding and consoling. The St Mark Family will miss her dearly.
May she Rest in Peaceߙϰߏ»
