Jo has lived in Florida for the past 7 years full time, visiting family for a few months of the year. She was strong willed, fun loving, and full of life. She loved gardening, being outside working around her house, and baking pies for her neighbors. She was always up for going to Disney with her grandkids when they came down to visit her. Jo loved line dancing with all her friends at the local VFW where she lived in Florida and was still teaching and dancing up until a couple of months ago. Most of all Jo loved her family, Christmas was her favorite time of year, and she will be deeply missed during this and every Holiday.
