I am so sorry to learn of Miss Jo's passing. She was one of the sweetest souls to ever walk this earth. I worked with her at the DS News and she taught me many things. We all need to strive to be more like her. I know you will miss her terribly. You were all blessed to have had her in your lives. Praying for peace.
