Jo was a major part of how our family grew closer! She was all about family. She was a heart that was as big as the moon , and was as giving even if it meant her going without . Strong was who she was, whether raising her family or fighting her illness. I love you cuz and will miss you more than anybody will know.  Fly with the angel sweet lady till we see you again

To Stephen and Family,
Words cannot express how I feel about Joanne. She had become a big part of helping me through my grieving process and now you guys are going through it. I can't believe it! She was such a big part of our family and I know that she brought a lot of people together. She had a heart of gold and I will miss her forever.

Jo i just found out you have passed on to a better place,but I am so sad. You have had a place in our hearts forever, your firstborn may be part of our family-as Bill was your first love-only God knows what you may have hidden-but you have to know that Bill and I have loved you always. The teenage years were so stressful but life goes on and we find out that God directs our path. Love U.
