I worked with Jo Jo at Sandy Point for years and always enjoyed her. Her stories and pictures of her and Tom at the beach were great. I have a lot of fond memories. Rest in Peace Jo Jo.##imported-begin##Sandy Ledbetter##imported-end##

So sorry to hear about Jo Jo. I was there not long ago to see her. She loved the gifts we gave her. Especially the large teddy bear for Christmas one year. She had it with her every night. She appreciated everything and especially company. Very nice person. Rest in peace Jo Jo. God Bless You. Linda Holmes.##imported-begin##Linda Holmes##imported-end##
I was a caregiver to Jo Jo at the facility in Coopersville where Jo Jo resided. She shared about her life and of her love for animals; dogs in particular. We fed birds outside her window. She made some real good friends. She loved a good joke and an old movie. She trusted in her Savior.
I am blessed to have known this dear lady.##imported-begin##Ruth Lucas##imported-end##
I was surprised to hear that Jo has passed away. I'm Tom's cousin (Mary Van Horssen). I have so many fond memories of Tom and Jo. My sisters (Bev and Gerry) have lost track of her in the past several years. We used to see her mother when she lived at Pilgrim Manor. Our mother lived there at the same time. Please know your family is in our thoughts and prayer at this time.##imported-begin##Mary McKinley##imported-end##
