Jo is a good example to each of us of how to be socially connected and involved. She was a vibrant resident of Green Hills, friendly and interested, and always interesting. If her final years are any indication, she lived an amazingly wonderful life. You are missed, Jo.

My sympathy to Jo's family. We enjoyed many good card games with her, and her good company. Catherine and Pat Burns
