Jo lived a rich and full life of service to her faith, family and others. She loved sharing her faith with others and taught Sunday school for 30 years at the Medicine Park Baptist Church. She was a member of the Red Hat Society and very much enjoyed fellowship and friendship with others.
She was generous with her time and the fruits of her success. Helping children was always close to her heart. Many years ago, when her church began attending Falls Creek, she stepped forward to purchase a cabin for her church in the hope that more children come to know the Lord.
